A
True
B
False
C
We can’not say
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -In conclusion, we can say that the structure of the human digestive tract is the same as in herbivores. Humankind does not show mixed features in the structure of digestive tract, as would be expected in omnivores such as bears and raccoons.

Detailed explanation-2: -The human digestive system is suited to a processed food diet because of its smaller volume, notably smaller colonic volume, relative to the intestines of other species, and because of differences from other primates in dentition and facial muscles that result in lower bite strength.

Detailed explanation-3: -The four basic types of digestive systems in animals are monogastric, avian, ruminant, and pseudo-ruminant. Monogastric animals, such as swine, eat rations high in concentrates. The avian digestive system, found in poultry, is completely different from the other three types of digestive systems.

Detailed explanation-4: -The organ system that aids in the digestion of both animal and plant components is referred to as the monogastric digestive system. This digestive system is known as monogastric since it is made up of a single stomach. The digestive system of humans, horses, swine, birds, dogs, and rabbit-like animals is monogastric.
