8. No flat molarteeth to grind food.

9. Very strong hydrochloric gastric acid to digest tough animal tissue like muscles and bones.

10. Bowel scheme is three times the length of the body, so that fast rotting meat can leave the body quickly.

PLANTEATER

2. Transpires through millions of pores in the skin.

3. Has no sharp frontteeth.

4. Good developed salivary glands neccessary to digest grains and plants.

5. Alkaline spit, lots of ptyalin to digest grains.

6. Flat molarteeth to grind food.
