their environment, and with other organisms.
The sites of the human body inhabited by
microorganisms include the mouth, nasal
cavities, throat, stomach, intestines, urogenital
tracts, and skin. The microbiota is the
community of commensal, symbiotic and
pathogenic microorganisms that share our
body. The collection of genes that are encoded
by the members of the microbiota is called the
metagenome. The microbiota is the collection of
genomes from all the microorganisms in the
