2015). With this generalist diet, the two-toed sloths exhibit an overall greater plasticity in the tree and habitat use allowing the overall resilience within the ecosystem (Mendoza et al. 2015). Due to the diverse diet, the two-toed sloth’s gut supports a more diverse community of microorganisms. (Dill‐McFarland et al., 2015) With the diverse community of microorganisms, there becomes an un-cohesive SCOA profile in the gut of the sloth which allows a diverse uptake of nutrients (Dill‐McFarland et al., 2015). This in turns allows the two-toed sloths to process a variety of foods hence being considered to have a generalist…

The literal meaning of 'pre-destination', in the Islamic sense, is: 'pre-fixing the fate of someone or something', in the sense of determining the capacity, capability, endowment, function and other faculties.
