Question
Chapter 23.12, Problem 1CR
Summary Introduction
Ruminants are mammalian animals that are foregut fermenters. Some of them are domestic animals. The rumen is the digestive organ that ferment and digest large sized food particles known as cud. These animals obtain nutrients from a plant based food or plants as such. The rumen contains a warm as well as a constant temperature range of 39°C. Amino acids and vitamins are present in the rumen that are synthesized by its normal flora.
