What kind of bacteria can be found in the stomach of cow and goat?

There are primarily four types of bacteria found in the reticulo-rumen of ruminants like cows and goats: cellulose-digesting, hemicellulose-digesting, starch-digesting and lactate-utilizing bacteria.


What effect does bacteria have on the digestion of cellulose?

the bacteria breaks down the organic matter in sludge ,giving the result of the biogas which can be used as fuel.


How an animal with a stomach designed to digest meant has adapted to a herbivorous diet?

I imagine you meant MEAT yes? If so it would be as ALL plant eating animals have adapted to digesting cellulose and plant matter, with bacteria. Normally an organism would kill off foreign life, but herbivores have developed symbiotic relationships with certain bacteria which can break down plant matter. These bacteria generally reside in the intestines, but can also be found in an animal's stomach(s)As a side note, take care when taking antibiotics, they klil indiscriminately and will usually deplete your digestive bacteria, so you'll have problems digesting for a week or two after you finish with the meds.


What are the grass eating animals called?

Ruminants are animals that eat grass. They are specially adapted to digest the cellulose found in grass by having large stomachs filled with fermenting bacteria.


What is the science definition of herbivores?

Herbivores are organisms that primarily consume plant material as their source of energy and nutrients. They are usually adapted to digesting cellulose and other complex carbohydrates found in plants. Examples of herbivores include cows, deer, and caterpillars.


What are some organisms that contain cellulose?

Cellulose is hard to digest plant material found in plants such as grass and leaves.Herbivores such as Cows and giraffes can digest cellulose.certain types of bacteria can digest cellulose as well.


Why can ruminants not digest grass in absence of bacteria?

Ruminants rely on bacteria in their rumen to break down cellulose found in grass into simpler molecules that can be digested by the animals. Without these bacteria, ruminants lack the enzymes necessary to break down cellulose on their own, making grass indigestible for them.


Which cell orgenelles which found only in plant cell?

A cellulose cell wall (note: bacteria and fungi cells both have cell walls, but not made of cellulose)A large permanent vacuole


How do cows digest cellulose?

Because cattle are ruminants and cellulose is broken down by the microbes found inside of the rumen and then digested further in the cecum. Humans do not have a multiple-chambered stomach nor a functional cecum, thus making digesting cellulose impossible. Cellulose only acts as a gut filler for humans, which is the main reason why plant matter passes through so quickly (in around 2 hours) in a human's digestive tract compared to meat, and compared to the time it takes plant matter to go through a cow's digestive tract.


How to absorb glucose from cellulose?

glucose can't be absorbed from cellulose,as its a polymer,so cellulose is more stable compound,,if u can get the bacteria which is found in cow's stomach gut, u can converte your cellulose to glucose.


Where is the polysaccharide cellulose found in plants?

cellulose


What organisms produce cellulose?

Plants are the primary organisms that produce cellulose. Specifically, cellulose is made by plant cells, such as those in the stems, leaves, and roots of plants. Additionally, some bacteria and algae also have the ability to produce cellulose.
