It holds the same purpose as it does for humans and any other mammal: it's a site where nutrients are absorbed into the body by tiny projections inside the small intestine called villi.
The cow is the animal that has a longer small intestine than the human. This is mainly due to the cow's diet, which is strictly herbivorous, unlike the human.
It has no purpose.

one of the many purposes of the small intestine is to extract the nutrients and or digestive juices from what enters it
The small intestine is in the gastrointestinal tract after the stomach. It is followed by the large intestine. A lot of the digestion and absorption of food takes place here.
Need scale and purpose to answer.
Appendix
To allow a greater surface area for nutrient absorption.
yes, the cow eats the tapeworm, that is why the tapeworm is in the cow's intestine
The small intestine in a bovine operates the same way it does in humans or any other mammal: it absorbs nutrients from the digesta that is pushed through it. The small intestine, just like in humans, contains many microscopic villi that increase the surface area of the small intestine and increase the efficiency of nutrient absorption from the small intestine into the bloodstream.
The large intestine is about 5 to 6 times the length of the animal.
Near the pancreas and stomach just like humans.
