Explain the effects that fiber have on digestion/absorption and health benefits in the GI tract (e.g., mouth, stomach, small intestine, large intestine). In what ways are the mucosa and submucosa of the small intestine adapted for digestion and absorption? What is extracellular digestion? Ho...
Ruminant digestionLivestockGlume wheatsBarleyWild plantsFuelTaphonomyOn archaeological sites where livestock dung was a major fuel source, plant material that survives digestion intact may well be preserved in the remnants of dung-fuelled fires. Preserved plant remains which were derived from dung relate...
What is the similarities of monogastric and ruminant? Similarities Between Monogastric and Ruminant Digestive System. Both monogastric and ruminant digestive systemsare involved in the digestion of food, absorption of nutrients, and elimination of indigestible materials. Both digestive systems comprise teet...
Which part of the ruminant stomach does the food enters first? Describe the major processes occurring during digestive system activity. Is the pancreas an exocrine or endocrine gland? What are its contributions to digestion and where are they added to the digestive ...

Goat stomach compartments (the reticulum region), as an exemplar of the famed (but inaccurately described) “four-stomach” digestive system of ruminant mammals- not 4 stomachs, but 4 compartments that divide the labour of digestion (including bacterial fermentation): Bah, enough synapsids! Deep ...
Urea is the most common nonprotein nitrogen (NPN) compound used as a feed ingredient for ruminant animals. It serves as the source of nitrogen for the biosynthesis of protein with the mediation of bacteria and other microorganisms. However, its use as such must consider, among others, its lac...
Burger King is making its cows fart and burp less to reduce their methane emissions and slow climate change. Here's how the science works.
