fights intestinal infection
aids in digestion
secretes hormones
produces insulin

Answer 1

The correct answer is - a storehouse for good bacteria.

Step-by-step explanation:

The appendix is a finger-like small narrow-sized pouch that founds out from the colon. Initially, it was thought to a vestigial organ that has very little or no function in the human body.

In modern and more recent research suggests that the appendix has a very important role as it works as a reservoir or storehouse for beneficial gut bacteria.
