File:Kibegwa 2023 rumen microbiome.png is displayed in section Cattle § Digestive system. The source of the image is "Fig 1. Phylogenetic classification of the rumen microbiome as revealed by metagenomic analysis." from paper "Diversity and functional analysis of rumen and fecal microbial communities associated with dietary changes in crossbreed dairy cattle" by Kibegwa et al.

), a small pie chart is split into three parts. Arrows from these slices point to three corresponding bar charts. The arrow from the blue (Archaea) slice points to a bar chart (labeled "e", captioned e. Stacked bar plot of relative abundance of the dominant phyla in the Eukaryota domain.
) with six items:
- Arthropoda
- Streptophyta
- Chordata
- Ascomycota
- Other Eukaryota
- unclassified (Eukaryota)
Arrow from the grey (Eukaryota) slice points to a bar chart with:

Young male cattle are called bull calves, once they are castrated they are called steers for the first 12 months then they are bullocks or oxen. 58.179.75.144 (talk) 20:36, 11 September 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: leaving aside that Wikipedia isn't a dictionary, we can't insert text without citing a reliable source; nor is it obvious where this might go in the article.
