A rat has a long small intestine to enhance nutrient absorption from its food. As omnivores, rats consume a varied diet, requiring an extended digestive tract to break down and absorb the nutrients effectively. The length of the small intestine allows for a greater surface area, facilitating the absorption of essential nutrients and energy needed for their active lifestyle. This adaptation is crucial for their survival and overall health.
