True or False: Bacteria in your gut can partially digest soluble fiber through a process called "transportation."

The statement is false because the process referred to is not accurately described as "transportation." Instead, the correct term related to the digestion of soluble fiber by gut bacteria is "fermentation." Soluble fiber is a type of dietary fiber that is soluble in water and can be broken down by the beneficial bacteria in the gut. This fermentation process produces short-chain fatty acids and gases, which can have various health benefits, such as promoting gut health and providing energy to colon cells.

Transport refers to the movement of substances across cell membranes, which does not describe the breakdown of fiber by bacteria. Thus, the idea that bacteria partially digest soluble fiber through a process called "transportation" is incorrect, leading to the conclusion that the answer is false.
