What is the differences between hindgut and foregut fermenters?
Hindgut fermenters use microbes (bacteria only) and fermentaion in their hindgut, the caecum and proximal colon. Microbes that are washed out cannot be digested and therefore high-quality protein is lost. Examples of hindgut fermenters are horses, koalas, possums, wombats and pigs. (not pigs, because only herbivores have hindgut or foregut) Foregut Fermeters have two sacs (a tubiform and a sacciform fore stomach) containing lots of microbes. These microbes consume glucose from cellulose but produce fatty acids that the animal can use for energy. (Microbes can also be digested further along the digestive tract as they are also a source of protein) Forgut Fermentation is a slower digestive process. Examples of foregut fermenters are sheep, cattle, hippopotamus, wallabies and pademelons. (generally larger animals)
Which occurs when there is a limited amount of food in an environment?
Competition
How many stomach does an elephant has?
An elephant has only one stomach, like most mammals. However, an elephant's stomach is divided into multiple compartments, including the rumen and hindgut, which help with digestion of the plant-based diet.
What is the end product of fermentation in animals?
It produces Lactic Acids, ethanol, hydrogen gas, Sugar, Carbon Dioxide.
What are the 2 types of fementation?
Alcaholic Fermination:*Pyruvic acid is converted to carbon dioxide and alcahol*Used to make bread, wine, beer, and ethenol.*bacteria and yeast.Lactic Acid Fermination:*Pyruvic acid is converted into lactic acid.*Occurs in animal cells-A build-up of lactic acid causes muscle fatique and soreness

What is the function on hindgut fermentation?
Hindgut fermentation is a digestive process that occurs in the large intestine of some animals, such as horses and rabbits. It involves the breakdown of plant material by microbial fermentation to extract nutrients, particularly volatile fatty acids. This process allows animals to derive additional energy and nutrients from their diet.
What is the difference between a ruminant and a hind gut?
Ruminants are animals like cows and sheep that have a specialized stomach divided into four compartments, allowing them to efficiently digest fibrous plant material through a process of fermentation and regurgitation (cud chewing). In contrast, hindgut fermenters, such as horses and rabbits, have a single-chambered stomach and rely on a large cecum and colon for fermentation, where microbial breakdown of food occurs after it has passed through the stomach. This difference in digestive anatomy and process affects how each type of animal processes their food and extracts nutrients.
How do the types of fermentation differ?
Aerobic fermentation occurs in an environment that contains air. Anaerobic fermentation occurs in one lacking air.
How do the two of fermentation differ?

What organelle does fermentation take place in?
fermentation occurs in the mitochondria actually.
Does fermentation occur in mitochondria of cells?
No, fermentation occurs in the cytoplasm outside the mitochondria.
Where does fermentation occurs the cell?
Cytoplasm.
What is missing when fermentation occurs?
oxygen.
