The four compartments are: RUMEN, RETICULUM, OMASUM, ABOMASUM.
The stomach of a ruminant occupies ¾ of the abdominal cavity Rumen This is the first compartment of a ruminant animal. Most feed collects here after being swallowed. Cellulose is broken down here with the help of rumen microbes. http://www.extension.umn.edu/distribution/livestocksystems/components/DI0469-02.html Rumen On left side of the animal
Largest part of the stomach, makes up 80% of the stomach
Lighter feed collects here (cellulose)
Absorbs nutrients
Requires a lot of water Reticulum Second compartment of the stomach
There are many folds and its nickname is honeycomb http://education.vetmed.vt.edu/Curriculum/VM8054/Labs/Lab21/Lab21.htm Reticulum Hardware stomach-Traps any foreign material that the animal may picks up. It is very thick and therefore harder to damage. Stores foreign objects so that damaging items do not go through the digestive tract.
Honeycomb shape
Helps open and close rumen, makes up 5% of the stomach
Absorbs nutrients Omasum Third chamber of the stomach
Nicknamed manyplies http://education.vetmed.vt.edu/Curriculum/VM8054/Labs/Lab21/Lab21.htm Omasum Right side of animal, makes up 8% of the stomach
Called manyplies because it looks like pages of a book
Absorbs nutrients Abomasum Fourth compartment of the stomach
Where true digestion occurs Abomasum On right side of animal, 8% of stomach
Enzyme activity breaks down feed
Nickname: True stomach Small Intestine Upper part of the intestine where digestion is complete and nutrients are absorbed into the body
Long in length, about 150 feet long
Aids in further digestion after feed goes through the stomach http://www.bioschool.co.uk/bioschool.co.uk Large Intestine Goes from the ileum to the anus and includes the cecum, colon, and rectum.
Absorbs water
Some vitamins and minerals are also absorbed here Aids in Nutrient Absorption Rumen Microbes- Bacteria or protozoa live in stomach and help breakdown feed http://res2.agr.ca/lethbridge/emia/TEMproj/rumenbac_e.htm Aids in Nutrient Absorption Saliva- helps protect the stomach by acting as a buffer. Contains alkaline which helps maintain the rumen microbial.
Pancreas- helps breakdown fat by secreting enzymes.
Liver- Contains bile which helps digest fat. Keys for Digestion Nutrients: Digestion helps animals obtain nutrients from their feed. This is important for many reasons:
Growth
Maintenance
Production (making of milk)
Reproduction http://office.microsoft.com/clipart/results. Nutrients Needed Fats (lipids)
