Summary:
Fig. 3.8. A ruminal papilla (LS) showing the high density of blood vessels in the lamina propria and the thin, stratified squamous epithelium, which allows rapid absorption of the volatile fatty acids. Note the close association of bacteria with the ruminal epithelium. Many of these bacteria are facultative anaerobes that can use the higher oxygen tension that exists close to the blood vessels, thereby maintaining the low oxygen tension in the rumen.
