Herbivores like cows have a different stomach than humans do – whereas human stomachs have just one stomach, cows have a four-chambered stomach. Their stomachs also possess an enzyme called CELLULASE, which is specific to breaking down cellulose into its constituting GLUCOSE molecules.

Answer:

Humans cannot digest cellulose in their food like cattle due to the absence of rumen. The cellulose of the food is digested by the action of bacteria present in rumen.
