The document summarizes three main types of digestive systems: 1) Ruminant systems like those in cattle and sheep have multi-chambered stomachs and use microbial fermentation in the rumen to digest plant matter. 2) Monogastric systems like in humans and pigs have a simple stomach and rely on enzymes and acid digestion. 3) Hindgut fermenters like horses have a simple stomach but very large and complex large intestine where cellulose is broken down by symbiotic bacteria.
