Answer:

Cellulose is a polysaccharide which has strong glycosidic bonds. Its digestion takes a longer time. Hence, herbivores who eat grass/green leafy vegetables need a longer small intestine to allow complete digestion of cellulose.

Explanation:

The small intestine is longer in herbivore than in carnivore because herbivores eat only grass which is full of cellulose and the digestion of cellulose takes a long time. ... Herbivores need a longer small intestine to allow cellulose to be digested as taken from green plants
