BTEC Level 3 Animal Management - Animal
Biology Exam Questions And Answers
urine storage - - -
correct answer ✅- the bladder can hold up to one pint of urine
comfortably
- Bladder has three layers. Epithelial, Muscular and Fibrous
the ureter - - -
correct answer ✅- small tube about 25cm long
- carries the urine from the renal pelvis to the urinary bladder
- layers are fibrous, muscular and epithelial
loop of henle - - -
correct answer ✅- sodium and chlorine ions are actively
transported out of the ascending limb which reduces water
potential in the tissue fluid
- loss of water - increases sodium and chlorine ions
reabsorption - - -
correct answer ✅- substances that enter the nephron are not all
excreted but flow back into the blood
- occurs with electrolytes, amino acids, glucose & water
- occurs in the loop of Henle or the proximal and distal tubules

Biology Exam Questions And Answers
Filtration - - -
correct answer ✅- kidneys produce urine by glomerular filtration
- blood enters the glomerulus under high pressure forcing
substances across the endothelial-capsular membrane into the
nephron
the kidneys - - -
correct answer ✅- found in the abdominal cavity
- responsible for regulation of fluids and excretion of toxic
substances
urea - - -
correct answer ✅- produces in the liver from deamination of
amino acids
- transported in the blood to the kidneys where it is excreted into
urine
nephritis - - -
correct answer ✅- inflammation of the kidney
- caused by infections and toxins
,BTEC Level 3 Animal Management - Animal
Biology Exam Questions And Answers
- mostly caused by autoimmune disorders that affect the major
organs
liver cirrhosis - - -
correct answer ✅- chronic, end of stage liver disease
- normal liver tissue has been replaced by fibrous scar tissue
- can lead to cancer, viral bacterial and fungal infections
heart murmur - - -
correct answer ✅- a short-duration humming sound of cardiac or
vascular origin
- The most common cause of an acquired heart murmur in the dog
is a condition in which the mitral valve becomes thickened and
begins leaking
Von Willibrand - - -
correct answer ✅the most common inherited bleeding disorder of
both humans and dogs. It is caused by a deficiency in the amount of
a specific protein needed to help platelets (the blood cells used in
clotting) stick together and form clots to seal broken blood vessels.
, BTEC Level 3 Animal Management - Animal
Biology Exam Questions And Answers
Seizures - - -
correct answer ✅- The sudden attack or recurrence of a disease
- A single episode of epilepsy, often named for the type it
represents
- Causes: an inherited disorder, but its exact cause is unknown.
Other causes include liver disease, kidney failure, brain tumours,
brain trauma, or toxins. ..
Listeriosis - - -
correct answer ✅- vomiting, diarrhoea and fever are most
common.
- Listeriosis is an infectious but not contagious disease caused by
the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes,
- more common in domestics animals (domestic mammals and
poultry), especially cows.
- The bacteria lives in the soil and in poorly made silage, and is
acquired by ingestion.
myelopathy - - -
correct answer ✅- a progressive disease of the spinal cord in older
dogs.
