Detailed explanation-1: -The monogastric organisms have a digestive system with a single-chambered stomach. The monogastric herbivores can digest cellulose with the help of symbiotic bacteria in the gut region. Their cellulose digestion is not as efficient as the ruminants.

Detailed explanation-2: -Monogastric animals have a limited ability to use free fatty acids, with the triglyceride form being the most effective form of fat in diets. When formulating diets, the ratio of free fatty acids as a % of the total fat in the finished feed should not be higher than 40%.

Detailed explanation-3: -Examples of monogastrics include humans, poultry, pigs, horses, rabbits, dogs and cats.

Detailed explanation-4: -Humans, swine, rabbits, chickens and horses all have a simple stomach, which is also known as a monogastric digestive system. Carnivores and omnivores have monogastric digestive systems.
