29
Purposes of the endocrine and nervous systems?
Endocrine regulates body functions via hormones; nervous controls responses and sensory processing.
30
Branches of the autonomic nervous system and functions?
Sympathetic: "Fight or flight." Parasympathetic: "Rest and digest."
31
Percentage of each milk component?
Fat: 3-4% Lactose: 4-5% Protein: 3-4% Water: 87-88% Minerals/Vitamins/Other: 1%
32
Casein is a type of ___________ found in milk.
Casein is a type of protein found in milk.
33
Term describing alteration of fat globules to prevent separation in milk?
Homogenization.
34
Amount of milk needed to make one pound of cheese?
About 10 pounds of milk.
35
% fat in types of fluid milk: Whole, 1%, Skim?
Whole: 3.25% fat 1% Milk: 1% fat Skim: Less than 0.5% fat
36
What is energy?
Energy is the capacity to do work, such as growth, reproduction, or maintenance.
37
NRC and its purpose?
National Research Council (NRC) provides nutrient requirement guidelines for animals.
38
Importance of knowing an animal’s nutrient requirements?
Helps design species-specific diets based on digestive capabilities.
39
Differences between roughages and concentrates?
Roughages are high-fiber (e.g., hay); concentrates are high-energy/protein (e.g., grains). Fiber content is the benchmark.
40
Difference between energy feed and protein feed/supplement?
Energy feeds provide calories (e.g., corn); protein feeds support growth (e.g., soybean meal).
41
Examples of feeds in each nutrient class?
Water: Fresh water Carbohydrates: Corn Proteins: Soybean meal Fats: Vegetable oil Vitamins: Vitamin supplements Minerals: Salt, limestone
42
What is maintenance?
Maintenance is the energy/nutrients needed to sustain basic bodily functions without weight change.
43
Species with each digestive system type?
Monogastric: Pigs, humans Ruminant: Cows, sheep Hind-gut fermenter: Horses, rabbits
44
Importance of digestive anatomy in animal nutrition?
Helps design species-specific diets based on digestive capabilities.
45
Differences between ruminants and hind-gut fermenters?
Ruminants have multi-chambered stomachs; hind-gut fermenters ferment in the cecum/colon. Ruminants digest fiber more thoroughly.
46
Site for nutrient absorption in all digestive systems?
Small intestine.
47
Capacity of a mature cow’s rumen?
Approximately 40-50 gallons
48
Digestive system that utilizes microbial protein?
Ruminants.
49
Digestive systems able to utilize cellulose (fiber)?
Ruminants and hind-gut fermenters.
50
Portion of large intestine more developed in hind-gut fermenters?
Cecum.
51
Organs analogous to swine stomach in ruminants and chickens?
Ruminant: Abomasum Chicken: Proventriculus
