Cellulose is a type of carbohydrate that can be digested by ruminants and not by humans. Ruminants have a large sac-like structure between small and large intestine.

In this structure, the food containing cellulose is digested by the action of certain bacteria. On the other hand, due to the absence of cellulose digesting enzymes, humans cannot digest cellulose.
