The abomasum is the fourth chamber in the ruminant. It functions similarily to the [[Monogastric Stomach - Anatomy & Physiology|carnivore stomach]] as it is glandular and functions to digest food chemically, rather than mechanically or by fermentation like the other 3 chambers of the ruminant stomach.

The abomasum differs in its position within the abdomen, depending on fullness of the other chambers of the stomach, intrinsic abomasonal activity, contractions of the [[Rumen - Anatomy & Physiology|rumen]] and [[The Reticulum - Anatomy & Physiology|reticulum]] (to which it is attached) and by age and pregnancy.
