ANIMAL SCIENCE CHAPTER 5 WITH
VERIFIED QUESTIONS AND CORRECT
ANSWERS GRADED A+ (2024-2025)
nutrition - ANS-The study of the body's need and mechanism of acquiring, digesting, transporting, and
metabolizing nutrients.
Cost of commercial livestock production - ANS-Cost of feed and feeding is 45-75% of the total cost of
livestock production.
True or False: You cannot make money in animal production agriculture without properly feeding the
livestock. - ANS-TRUE
4 ways nutrition affects livestock and why we should study it: - ANS-1. general health and well-being
2. physical abilities
3. susceptibility to and ability to recover from disease
4. understanding of body systems
"bio-logic" of life - ANS-understanding the basics of nutrition helps understand the basics of life
Animal nutritionists are specialized into 2 categories: - ANS-1. Monogastric
2. Ruminant
monogastric - ANS-Having only ONE stomach
, ruminant - ANS-Hooved animals that have a RUMEN and chew their cud.
List monogastric animals. - ANS-Poultry, swine, horse, dog, cat, fish, rat, mouse, guinea pig, monkey.
List ruminant animals. - ANS-sheep, goats, dairy/beef cattle
basic nutritionist - ANS-A nutritionist interested in elucidating basic metabolism and nutrient action and
interaction.
applied or production nutritionist - ANS-The practical nutritionist. More interested in maximal, cost-
effective feeding of animals in a production setting. They explore the many possibilities for using
feedstuffs to make the best money.
"feed-em and weigh-em" research is called this. - ANS-Applied nutrition
Disciplines that nutrition specialists must know: - ANS-biochemistry, cytology, economics, marketing,
endocrinology, genetics, inorganic chemistry, mathematics, microbiology, neurology, organic chemistry,
physics, physiology, veterinary medicine, and waste management.
nutrient - ANS-A substance in the diet that supports the normal functions of the body.
2 types of nutrients - ANS-1. dietary essentials
2. dietary nonessentials
dietary essentials - ANS-must be part of the diet
list 6 dietary essentials - ANS-1. water
2. carbohydrates
3. vitamins
