25
Q

starch carbohydrate digestion

A

-mouth: salivary amylase
-stomach: not digested in non ruminants
SI: enzymatic digestion(p. amylase, maltase, sucrase, lactase)
LI: fermentative digestion

26
Q

enzymatic digestion of starch in SI

A

starch—amylase–>dextrins
dextrins–amylase–>maltose
maltose–maltase–>2 glucose
lactose–lactase–>glu +gal
sucrose–sucrase–>glu + fru

27
Q

enzymatic digestion of fiber

A

cellulose–cellulase–>glucose
glu–>2 acetate+CO2+ CH4+ heat
glu–>2 propionate + H2O
glu–>1 butyrate + CO2 + CH4

28
Q

how do hay and corn have the same amount of protein, fat content, and CHO but very different TDN

A

hay dominant CHO is fiber
corn dominant CHO is starch

29
Q

how many kcals of heat/gram in lipids

A

9.45

30
Q

how many kcals of heat/gram in carbohydrates

A

4.2

31
Q

true fats

A

long chain fatty acids linked by ester bonds with GLYCEROL

32
Q

waxes

A

long chain fatty acids with ester bonds linked with ALCOHOL

33
Q

what enzyme breaks down polyglycerides

A

lipase

34
Q

why does biohydration occur in the rumen

A

rumen is high in H+ atoms and wants to be lower

35
Q

biohydrongenation

A

unsaturated fatty acids being converted to saturated fatty acids

36
Q

hydrolyzation

A

triglycerides broken into glycerol and LCFA

37
Q

fermentation of fatty acids

A

glycerol fermented to VFAs

38
Q

steps of fermentative digestion of fatty acids

A

hydrolyzation
fermentation
biohydrogenation

39
Q

what is beef higher in saturated fatty acids than other meats

A

due to biohydrogenation in the rumen

40
Q

what is the biggest difference between the profile of LCFA n the SI of ruminants vs non ruminants

A

non ruminants: profile is the same as whats consumed
ruminants: profile is different that whats consumed

41
Q

true protein

A

protein made of amino acids

42
Q

non protein nitrogen

A

compounds that can be converted to proteins by bacterial action in ruminants

43
Q

where are peptide bonds hydrolyzed

A

small intestine

44
Q

what is dipeptidase secreted by

A

small intestine

45
Q

where is pepsinogen secreted into

A

stomach

46
Q

trypsin is secreted by what into what?

A

by pancreas
into small intestine

47
Q

what is enterokinase secreted by

A

duodenum

48
Q

chymotrypsin is secreted by what into what

A

by pancreas
into small intestine

49
Q

procarboxypeptidase is secreted by what into what

A

by pancreas
into small intestine

50
Q

what is the purpose of rumen bypass feed

A

to have more RUP(AA profile changes less)

51
Q

why are AA produced in the hindgut not absorbed

A

LI only allows for passive diffusion and AA are too big for that
