lowed a second time and is acted upon in the third division (or manyplies) and the fourth division (or reed). Next it passes into the intestine. Why is the paunch the largest compartment? In the figure do you recognize the paunch by its size? The honeycomb by its lining? Why is it round? The last two of the four divisions may be known by their direct connection with the intestine.

Fig. 389.—Okapi. This will probably prove to be the last large mammal to be discovered by civilized man. It was found in the forests of the Kongo in 1900.
Questions: It shows affinities (find them) with
giraffe, deer, and zebra. It is a ruminant ungulate
(explain meaning—see text).
The true gastric juiceis secreted only in the fourth stomach.
