Summary

[edit]
Description Figure 4. - The stomach of a developing human, adult human, shark, and ruminant. (A) Human stomach around 28 days. The dorsal wall of the stomach will grow faster, creating the greater curvature, and the ventral wall will form the lesser curvature. The stomach then rotates 90 degrees around a longitudinal axis, (B) Adult human stomach, where the greater curvature is rotated to the left and the lesser curvature is positioned on the right, (C) Stomach of an adult shark. Note the similarity in shape and orientation with the 28-day human stomach, and (D) Four chambered stomach of a ruminant; the various chambers house bacteria and allow for more extensive digestion of plant cellulose and regurgitation of cud for further mechanical digestion in the mouth.
