What are the differences between the avian specie and monogastric and ruminant digestive systems in animals?

Avian species have a unique digestive system that includes a crop for storage and a gizzard for grinding food, lacking true teeth. In contrast, monogastric animals, like pigs, have a single-chambered stomach that relies on enzymatic breakdown of food, while ruminants, such as cows, possess a complex stomach with multiple compartments (rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum) that enable fermentation and breakdown of fibrous plant material. This adaptation allows ruminants to efficiently digest cellulose, whereas monogastrics primarily digest simpler carbohydrates and proteins. Overall, the key differences lie in the structure and function of their digestive systems, reflecting their dietary needs.

How does a monogastric digestive system work?

Humans have mongastric digestive systems, much like many animals do. They're defined by a single-chambered stomach, and begins working as soon as food enters the mouth, due to the saliva. The food is then swallowed, taken through the esophagus, into the stomach where acids and enzymes digest the food even more. The end result after this step then travels through the small intestines where fats are broken down.

Do all animals from the Kingdom Animalia have similar digestive systems?
