Ruminants and Monogastrics
Ruminants are those animals that have a multiple-chambered stomach designed to digest herbaceous matter such as grass by the process of fermentation. Monogastrics are those animals that have a single-stomach that is designed for digestion of animal protein and highly-digestible phyto-nutrients such as fruits and grains. Questions about ruminants and monogastrics, including those about psuedo-ruminants (animals that have a single stomach like a monogastric but have their main fermentation vat in the cecum), can be asked and answered here.

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.
