∙ 13y agoA sheep is a ruminant and its stomach is made up of four compartments which each have a different function, these compartments are called the rumen, reticulum, omasum and abomasum. The lining of these stomachs is each different in texture, shape and structure. Humans only have one stomach, which is smooth walled.

How is the process of digestion in humans is different from that in ruminants?
The difference is mainly due to the complexity of carbohydrate digestion. Humans have a single stomach, where ruminants have a multichambered stomach to digest carbs more completely.

All ruminants have two toes therefore why are swine not ruminants?
It is proof that the conclusion that "all animals that are cloven hooved (or have 'two toes') are ruminants" is false. Swine are not ruminants because they have a simple stomach, not a four-chambered stomach, and thus are omnivorous animals. Other animals that are two-toed or cloven-hooved but are not ruminants are camelids (camels, alpacas, and llamas, for example), which are known as pseudoruminants due to the fact that they only have a three-chambered stomach.
Is the stomach of a giraffe the same as a humans?
Giraffes, like cows, are ruminants. They have a four-compartment stomach which can pass partially digested food around to aid the digestion of plant matter. The final stomach compartment, called the abomasum, is the closest equivalent to the stomach of a monogastric animal such as a human.
