What is the name of the animal with three stomachs?

Animals with multiple stomachs are known as ruminants. Examples of these are cattle, sheep and goats. They do not actually have multiple stomachs, but stomachs which have a number of 'compartments'.

Is milk made from bacteria?

If you are talking about cow's milk, then I suppose yes it is in a very roundabout way. First of all understand that milk is made by the mother animal out of her own body tissues. Milk is a modified form of "sweat" produced by modified sweat glands. However to produce milk the mother animal has to eat food, in the case of human milk the mother just eats more human food and drinks water and the body turn this into the raw material needed to produce the rich breast milk needed to feed her baby. With cows, although they eat grass, they can not digest this grass because it is made of "cellulose". They have special stomachs in which the chewed up grass is fermented by bacteria that live naturally in these stomachs and the bacteria break down and grow on the cellulose. The cow then "digests" these bacteria as its food. Thus in the case of ruminants, the food the mother cow lives on is bacteria and thus the milk was indeed originally bacteria.

Why is a babies diet different from an older persons diet?

Babies for the first 0-6 months require only breast milk as it provides all the nutrients they need and their stomachs are not biologically capable of handling anything else. Babies in general require less salt, fat etc because their organs are still developing and adult amounts of food containing salt and fat would have a detrimental affect on their development. They require smaller portions as they are small and so are their stomachs.
