The largest one, the rumen acts sort of as a storage unit where food can sit and ferment.

瘤是最大一个，它可以作为存放发酵储存单元。

Other additives work too, like fatty acids which reduce methane by lowering the carbohydrate content and reducing a specific parasite in the rumen known as protozoa.

其他添加剂起了作用，比如脂肪酸，它通过降低碳水化合含量减少瘤中被称为原生动特定寄生虫来减少甲烷。

And oregano was found to reduce the number of bacteria in the rumen to limit methane production.

牛至叶被发现可以减少瘤中细菌数量，从而限制甲烷产生。

Foods like grass or hay stay in the rumen longer and produce more of it.

像草或干草这样在瘤中停留时间更长，产生量就会更多。

It's very clear for ruminants, which are animals that have a rumen that eat grass.

对于反刍动来说，这一点非常清楚，反刍动是指有瘤并以草为动。

And so if we think about the rumen of a cow, a cow is going to have many multiple parts inside their stomach.

而如果我们想想牛瘤，牛里有很多部分。

In the first part, called the rumen, microbes break down fibery plants like grass and give off methane as a byproduct.

在第一部分， 称为瘤， 微生分解草等纤维植，并释放出甲烷作为副产品。

Well the fungi are important, even though they make something like 5% of the living things in the rumen, they can breakdown specific bonds between the lignin inside the cellulose.

真菌很重要， 尽管它们在瘤中活体占比只有大约5%，但它们能够分解纤维素内部木质素之间特定化学键。

All the cells that live in the rumen of a cow for example.

例如，所有生活在牛瘤中细胞。

Or in the rumen of the cow.

或在牛瘤中。
