When you don’t know an answer….
On today’s Physiology exam:
6) Give two reasons it would be beneficial to have a rumen (think cow) preceding your stomach in your gastrointestinal tract? (6 pts)
My response:
1) You would always look super cool. Everywhere you go, you look like you’re chewing gum. People would think, “wow, she must have some fresh breath!”
2) When you get full, you could say cool things like, “sorry, there’s no more room in my rumen.”
Obviously, I didn’t know the answer….or did I?????
