Guinea pigs cannot synthesize vitamin C (ascorbic acid) and require it in their diet. Feeding pelleted rabbit food, which is not fortified with vitamin C, leads to vitamin C deficiency (scurvy). Scurvy causes weakness, poor wound healing, hemorrhage, and lesions in connective tissues due to defective collagen synthesis.

Mycoplasma hypneumoniae, the causative agent of enzootic pneumonia in swine, is characterized by a chronic respiratory disease with a high morbidity (many animals affected) and low mortality (few deaths). This organism causes a persistent cough, reduced growth rates, and poor feed conversion, significantly impacting production efficiency but rarely causing death.

Got incorrect; Since the mass does not cross the mandibular symphysis, a unilateral rostral mandibulectomy is appropriate.
Surgery is the treatment of choice when the tumor is localized, since the mass is confined to the gingiva and ventral to the left mandibular canine tooth without crossing the mandibular symphysis, a unilateral rostral mandibulectomy is the most appropriate and effective option. This surgical procedure provides clean margins to reduce the risk of recurrence while preserving as much normal tissue as possible.

Third-degree perineal laceration: Involves full-thickness disruption of the rectovaginal septum. This laceration affects the vulva, vagina, perineal body, and rectal mucosa, leading to an abnormal communication between the rectum and vagina, allowing fecal material to pass into the vagina, as seen in this mare.
Rectovaginal fistula: This is an abnormal communication between the rectum and the vagina (e.g., caused by trauma, infection, or poor healing), but it is usually a chronic condition and is not associated with the acute laceration described in the question.
Answer: B
Can not remember if I got this correct or incorrect.
