Observe your surrounding or go to a nearby field and write about the following;
(a) How does the cow eat grass?
(b) What parts are used while doing so?
In what a way can you justify it as a herbivores?
Answers
Answer:
a) Rumination enables cows to chew grass more completely, which improves digestion.
First it swallows the grass and again it rechews.
b) a cow uses its tongue to grasp a clump of grass and then bite it off. ... Plant materials sometimes contain tough stems, but because a cow chews food in a side-to-side motion, the molars shred the grass into small pieces that are more easily digested.
It eats only plant and plant products. So we conclude that cow is a herbivore.
hope it helps....
Explanation:
Cows are unique in that they have fewer teeth than other animals. In the front of the mouth, teeth (known as incisors) are only located on the bottom jaw. In place of the top incisors, there is a hard leathery pad (known as the “dental pad”). In addition, cattle have a relatively immobile upper lip (compared to goats and sheep). Because of this unique oral anatomy, a cow uses its tongue to grasp a clump of grass and then bite it off. Teeth in the back of the mouth (known as molars) are located on the top and bottom jaws. Plant materials sometimes contain tough stems, but because a cow chews food in a side-to-side motion, the molars shred the grass into small pieces that are more easily digested.
