I NEED YOUR HELP
HELP PLEASE.
I have been looking at a study in which it is said that omnivores digestive system is very similar to carnivores.
Now i try to understand what this means.
If you guys say that man is omnivore then we are very similar to lions
and tigers, right?
I know that you guys are all very intelligent so you can help me to understand this difficult issue.![Worship (large) Worship (large)](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/worship-large.gif)
Omnivores
Omnivores consume both meat and plant matter; they have a digestive system very similar to carnivores but also have a working caecum (not as well adapted as in herbivores). Due to this flexibility they are able to consume a wide diet, which has also prevented them losing the ability to synthesise certain products in the body (as in carnivores).
The process of digestion is extremely similar to carnivores, except a few minor adaptations which allow them to digested plant matter – although not as efficiently as herbivores.
