Q

what percent of protein level – maximum growth? for PER

A

17
Q

3 extraneous factors that may affect PER. Enumerate.

A

Season
Sensitivity of animals to care
Changes in temperature

18
Q

2 disadvantages of PER. Enumerate.

A

Weight gain is not constant with protein level

No room for allowance for maintenenance

19
Q

Which is false?
A.Nitrogen balance gives specific information on flux of protein/AA pool within tissues/organs.
B.Carbohydrate and fat are protein-sparing.

A

A

does not give dapat

20
Q

What is biologic value of protein quality?

A

Measures how much nitrogen is retained in the body

21
Q

Biologic value of protein quality is not meaningful for individual components of mixed diets. Why?

A

since limiting AAs can

differ between sources

collective term for urinary and fecal nitrogen

losses from the protein diet

metabolic nitrogen

23
Q

collective term for nitrogen losses from the

protein-free diet

A

endogenous nitrogen

24
Q

negative nitrogen balance indicates ___

A

protein loss

25
