Sheep, like other ruminants, have a stomach with 4 compartments. These are the rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. The rumen is the largest of the four and is essentially a big fermentation vat (30-50 gallons in a cow, smaller in a ewe). It is where a bolus of food goes first after being swallowed, and it contains millions of microorganisms that are capable of turning the cellulose in forage into volatile fatty acids (VFA's) that are absorbed from the rumen and converted into energy. This fermentation process is the reason that ruminants can live on a grass diet. The reticulum is sometimes referred to as the 'pace-setter'. It is located in the cranio-ventral (lower front) aspect of the rumen, and is a small muscular pouch that contracts periodically to cause regurgitation of a food bolus. When ruminants are at rest, they will regurgitate these boluses, chew on them for a while, and swallow them back down. This is what people are talking about when they say that a ewe or cow is 'chewing her cud'. The omasum is a ball-like structure (about the size of a volleyball in cows, Baseball in ewes) that is filled with layer-upon-layer of absorbent leaves of tissue. Some people refer to the omasum as the 'many-plies' or the 'butcher's bible' because when you see one in cross-section it looks like pages of a book all stacked-up next to one another. This structure results in a very large amount of surface area, which helps the omasum do its job of absorbing water. The abomasum is the final compartment that food travels through before it gets emptied into the small intestine. The abomasum is most similar in structure and function to the stomach of monogastric animals - like pigs or humans. Some final break-down of proteins and carbohydrates occurs here to enhance absorption in the small intestine. Sheep and goats do an exceptional job of absorbing water in their large intestines, resulting in the production of pelleted feces. Cows are not nearly as efficient at this, and consequently they make a bigger mess!
They are adapted by the way they are structured and the way they are shaped like a worm and the teeth they have
Dolly was identical in every way to her clone
In the popular game, Tiny Farm, it is possible to get talking animals. One way to get a talking sheep is to breed black and brown sheep together.
There are many different breeds of sheep, the best way to show you is to give you this link which lists the sheep breeds in alphabetical order. http://www.ansi.okstate.edu/breeds/sheep/
yes buy the way do u know that they are the best at it!
because you dum egg
People you are biologically related to in some way, most likely directly biologically related to.

they are not adapted in ant way lee Matt
It is a way in which certain micro organisms biologically adapt to the environment.
It uses filter feeding way to help it. almost every ocean has dead substances and this is what helps the oyster to adapt well to it's surrounding, well this is one of them research and you will find a lot of information. good luck. God Bless you

Biologically? The same way you do.Physically? They won't fit in the toilet.
It's sheep; same as for one of them.
He was adapted to its habitat because it can camoufalge
Sheep can not do much work with pipes at all.
Platypuses do not climb rocks. They are not adapted for rock climbing in any way.
