The portion of the ruminant digestive system which consists of many folds of tissue is the: A Gizzard B Abomasum C Reticulum D Omasum
*D Omasum
The answer is D, Omasum. The omasum is also known as the “manyplies” due to its many folds. The main function of the omasum is to absorb water, electrolytes, and some nutrients from the partially digested food passed on from the reticulum and reticulo-rumen. The omasum also contributes to the mechanical breakdown of feed particles, which assists in further digestion by the abomasum, the true stomach of the ruminant.
