Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The main differences between ruminants and mo-nogastrics are monogastrics only have one compart-ment to their stomach, whereas ruminants have four compartments: rumen, reticulum, omasum, and abo-masum. Ruminants chew their food numerous times through a process called regurgitation or rumination.

Detailed explanation-2: -A monogastric organism has a simple single-chambered stomach (one stomach). Examples of monogastric herbivores are horses and rabbits.

Detailed explanation-3: -Nonruminants have a simple stomach structure which facilitates the normal digestion process where the ingested food is digested in a single process. Ruminant animals’ stomach contains four compartments namely Rumen, Reticulum, omasum, and abomasums. Nonruminant animals’ stomach contains only one apartment.
