What is the purpose of a abomasum?
The abomasum produces hydrochloric acid and digestive enzymes such as pepsin (breaks down proteins) and receives digestive enzymes secreted from the pancreas such as pancreatic lipase (breaks down fats). These secretions help prepare proteins for absorption in the intestines.
