Detailed explanation-1: -The abomasum is the last component of the stomach and is often known as the “true stomach, ‘’ because it operates the most similar to a non-ruminant stomach. This true stomach is the only compartment of the stomach lined with glands.
Detailed explanation-2: -The human digestive system has a single stomach. Ruminants have a complex stomach with four different compartments. Humans do not contain cellulose. Ruminants contain cellulase that digests cellulose.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is the so called “true stomach” since this compartment has mostly the same function as the stomach in monogastric animals, such as pigs and humans. In fact, it is in the abomasum that the cow’s own stomach acids and enzymes are used to further breakdown ingested feed before it passes into the small intestine.
