Resistant starch is a type of starch that isnât fully broken down and absorbed, but rather turned into short-chain fatty acids by intestinal bacteria. This may lead to some unique health benefits. To get the most from resistant starch, choose whole, unprocessed sources of carbohydrate such as whole grains, fruits, vegetables, and beans/legumes.
Ruminants (as in cows, sheep and goats) have four stomachs. Monogastrics, as in pigs, horses and man, have one. No â¦ animal has two stomachs.

Horses and rabbits have only one stomach but they have an active cecum in which fermentation occurs so that is why they can eat grass and hay. + 36 others found this useful.
The pig has a digestive system which is classified as monogastric or nonruminant. Humans also have this type of digestive system. They have one stomach (mono = one, gastric = stomach).The monogastric differs from that of a polygastric or ruminant digestive system found in cattle and sheep.These animals have one stomach broken into four compartments.Due to the differences in the digestive systems, cattle can utilize different types of feeds than pigs.he monogastric differs from that of a polygastric or ruminant digestive system found in cattle and sheep.
