| Food taken into the rumen is later regurgitated into the mouth and completely masticated, then swallowed again and passed to the reticulum, omasum, and abomasum. |
| The abomasum, known as the true stomach, normally lies on the floor of the abdomen, but can become filled with gas and rise to the top of the abdomen and become displaced. |
| This reflex is very important in newborn lambs to ensure that antibodies in the colostrum are transported intact to the abomasum. |
| This ensures that during suckling milk is channeled directly to the abomasum bypassing wasteful ruminal fermentation. |
| Metabolic problems in general, such as displaced abomasum, retained placenta or milk fever are also very rare. |
| In a shallow bath of a hearty brown sauce of ground nuts and red oil sat part of one of the four chambers of a cow's stomach, the rumen, or omasum, or perhaps the abomasum. |
