1. What is the definition of digestion? - ANSWER ✔ The reduction in particle
size of feed so that the feed becomes soluble and can pass across the gut wall
into the vascular or lymph system.
2. What are the functions of the digestive tract? - ANSWER ✔ Prepare
nutrients for absorption, store nutrients, build useful products, and reject
unused and broken down residue.
3. What is nutrient absorption? - ANSWER ✔ nutrients crossing the epithelium
and entering the blood
4. What are the five primary organs of the digestive tract? - ANSWER ✔
mouth, esophagus, stomach, small intestine and large intestine
5. What organs or tissues contribute to small intestine digestion? - ANSWER
✔ Salivary glands, pancreas, liver, and gallbladder
6. Examples of carnivores - ANSWER ✔ cats, dogs, ferrets, etc
,7. Examples of herbivores - ANSWER ✔ cattle, sheep, goats, horses, rabbits,
guinea pigs
8. Examples of omnivores - ANSWER ✔ pigs, humans, and poultry
9. What are the 5 classes of feed? - ANSWER ✔ - concentrate
- roughage/forage
- protein supplement
- non-nutritive additives
- vitamins/minerals
10.What are the characteristics of concentrates? - ANSWER ✔ High
digestibility, low fiber, high available energy
11.Examples of concentrates - ANSWER ✔ corn, sorghum, barley, molasses,
bakery by products
12.What are the characteristics of roughages? - ANSWER ✔ less digestible,
high fiber, low available energy
13.examples of roughages - ANSWER ✔ hay, silage, grass, straw
14.What are protein supplements? - ANSWER ✔ Feeds containing greater than
20% crude protein (contributes amino acids)
15.Examples of protein supplements - ANSWER ✔ soybean meal, meat and
bone meal, urea, and fish meal
, 16.What is the purpose of non nutritive additives? - ANSWER ✔ works to
increase gain efficiency
17.Examples of Non nutritive additives - ANSWER ✔ antibiotics, ionophores,
flavor compounds, hormone-like compounds
18.What is the difference between proximate analysis and Van Soest Fiber
System? - ANSWER ✔ Proximate analysis categorizes feed into six broad
components (moisture, ash, crude protein, ether extract, crude fiber, and
nitrogen-free extract), while the Van Soest system provides a more detailed
and accurate measure of fiber fractions (Neutral Detergent Fiber, Acid
Detergent Fiber, and lignin)
19.What is the best of both proximate analysis and Van Soest Fiber System? -
ANSWER ✔ Dry matter, ash and protein analysis from proximate analysis
and NDF (neutral detergent fiber) and ADF (Acid detergent fiber) from Van
Soest Fiber System
20.What is the definition of growth? - ANSWER ✔ Increase in body weight
until maturity is reached and an increase in animal tissue like muscle, fat,
and bone
21.What is true growth? - ANSWER ✔ only that growth that involves an
increase in structural tissues- excluding fat as a storage tissue
22.What is development? - ANSWER ✔ directive coordination of all diverse
processes until maturity is reached. Involves growth, cellular differentiation
and changes in body shape
