thumb|This diagram shows the monogastric digestive system of a human and rabbit. Notice the difference in cecum size between the two species. A monogastric organism defines one of the many types of digestive tracts found among different species of animals. The defining feature of a monogastric is that it has a simple single-chambered stomach (one stomach). A monogastric can be classified as an herbivore, an omnivore (facultative carnivore), or a carnivore (obligate carnivore). Herbivores have a plant-based diet, omnivores have a plant and meat-based diet, and carnivores only eat meat. Examples

The defining feature of a monogastric is that it has a simple single-chambered stomach (one stomach). A monogastric can be classified as an herbivore, an omnivore (facultative carnivore), or a carnivore (obligate carnivore). Herbivores have a plant-based diet, omnivores have a plant and meat-based diet, and carnivores only eat meat. Examples of monogastric herbivores include horses, rabbits, and guinea pigs. Examples of monogastric omnivores include humans, pigs, and hamsters. Furthermore, there are monogastric carnivores such as cats and seals.
A monogastric digestive tract is slightly different from other types of digestive tracts such as a ruminant and avian. Ruminant organisms have a four-chambered complex stomach and avian organisms have a two-chambered stomach. An example of a ruminant and avian are cattle and chickens.
