Q

Avian Proventriculus

A

Varies in size with species, comparable to glandular stomach in mammals or abomasum in ruminants, gastric juice production, low pH, ingesta passes rapidly

17
Q

Canine LI (colons)

A

Water absorption, electrolyte absorption

18
Q

Canine fermentation

A

Dependent on diet

19
Q

Ruminant mouth

A

No upper incisors, dental pad, particle size reduced by teeth grinding, saliva (moistens and provides buffer for VFAs)

20
Q

Ruminant esophagus

A

Same function as monogastrics

21
Q

Ruminant complex stomach compartments

A

Rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum

22
Q

Abomasum

A

True glandular stomach, lined with mucus membrane and gastric juice secreted

23
Q

Rumen forestomachs

A

Stratified squamous epithelium, not glandular

24
Q

Rumen anatomy

A

Act as anaerobic bacterial fermentation, undeveloped at birth, first place food goes, some food bypass anaerobic fermentation

25
Q

Rumen storage of food

A

Consume larger amounts, can digest later, regurgitation and re mastication, forage processing machines

26
Q

Rumen wall anatomy

A

Covered with papillae, small finger like projections, increased surface area, influence by diet and season

27
Q

Rumen esophageal groove

A

Groove which can contract and form tube to bypass rumen/reticulum, empties into omasum

28
Q

Esophageal groove function

A

Allow milk to pass directly to omasum and abomasum, keep milk out of young ruminants undeveloped rumen

29
Q

Reticulum anatomy

A

Honey comb, site of microbial action And absorption of VFAs, pacemaker for rumen contractions

30
Q

Reticulum function

A

Contractions start in reticulum, mixes rumen contents, heavy particles move to bottom, lighter ones float, lighter particles subject to rumination

31
Q

Omasum anatomy

A

Some water absorption, some mechanical digestion, regulates particle size flowing to abomasum

32
Q

Abomasum anatomy

A

True stomach, secretions, HCL-denatures protein, mucin and pepsin

33
Q

SI and LI

A

Similar to non ruminants

34
Q

Post gastric fermentation (cecum and colon)

A

5-15% cellulytic digestion can occur here, VFAs produced and absorbed in LI, water absorption

35
Q

Rumen provides favorable environment

A

Warmth, moisture, daily food supply, pH controlled, dark- no UV light, mixing, oxygen free, end products removed, ruminates and masticates

36
Q

Ruminant fermentation relationship

A

Microorganisms and animal live in symbiosis, animal benefit from MO digestions, MO have a place to live

37
Q

Microbial species of fermentation

A

Bacteria- digest cellulose, starch, protein, 15-50 billion/mL
Protozoa- prey on bacteria 20,000-500,000mL
Yeast- aid in cellulose breakdown

38
Q

How many MO in rumen

A

2.5 x 10^15

39
Q

End products of fermentation

A

VFAs, microbial protein, ammonia, gas, heat, lipid alterations

40
Q

Fermentation process

A

Starch and fiber-> VFA
Protein-> amino acid-> NH3 -> microbial protein
Unsaturated fats-> saturated fats

41
Q

Microorganisms found in rumen

A

CHO, VFA
