42-44
______ is the sum of all processes by which an animal takes in and utilizes food
Nutrition
_______involves a series of processes within the alimentary canal in which feeds are broken down in particle size and made soluble for absorption
Digestion
______ is an edible material that provides nutrients (human food)
Food
_____ is a food item that animals eat
Feed
______ are materials used as feed
Feedstuffs
_____ is a mixture of feedstuffs used to supply nutrients to an animal
Diet
______ is the region of the alimentary canal that runs from the stomach to the colon
Gastrointestinal tract (GIT)
______ is an edible material that provides nutrients (human food)
Food

Feed
______ are materials used as feed
Feedstuffs
_____ is a mixture of feedstuffs used to supply nutrients to an animal
Diet
______ is the region of the alimentary canal that runs from the stomach to the colon
Gastrointestinal tract (GIT)
______ involves the passage of digested nutrients from the gastrointestinal tract into the blood, where they are distributed throughout the body
Absorption
______ is the sum of all biochemical reactions that nutrients undergo to furnish energy and to build new tissue.
Metabolism
3 classes of types of diets
omnivore, herbivore, and carnivore
use mouth for:
grazing, prehension of food, and chewing
one of the most important part of the mouth for digestion
saliva
Functions of saliva
1. Helps food to form a bolus for swallowing
2. Keeps mouth moist and begins to solubilize food
3. Adds digestive enzymes
4. In ruminants, it aids in buffering pH
3 sections of the stomach
pyloric region, cardiac region, and peptic gland region
3 parts of small intestine
Duodenum, jejunum, ileum
duodenum has
many digestive juices
_____ is where most of the absorption occurs
jejunum
parts of large intestine
cecum, colon, rectum
_______ is to redigest unabsorbed nutrients and to acquire the bacterially-synthesized vitamins.
Coprophagy
functions of large intestine
Area of water absorption, fermentation by gut bacteria, Bacterial fermentation occurring VFA’S can be absorbed
4 compartments of a ruminant stomach
rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum
_____ has large fermentation chamber and site of VFA production
rumen- ph 5-7
proximal analysis is important for 2 reasons:
1.used in the feed industry for food and feed labels and for quality control
2. used to classify feedstuffs
Proximal analysis Is a lab procedure to estimate the ________ of a feed.
nutritive value
Feeds containing an average of more than 18% crude fiber in the dry state or classified as:
forages or roughages
Products containing 20% or more protein are classified as:
protein supplements
Products containing Less than 20% protein are called:
energy feeds
indetermination of dry matter one needs:
Initial weight and Final weight = 35 g
% Moisture =
(g water / g sample) x 100
%Dry matter =
100 – 30(%mositure) = 70 % DM
NDF =
Neutral detergent fiber: hemicellulose, cellulose and lignin
ADF =
Acid detergent fiber: cellulose and lignin
*Detergentfiber analysis
functions of water
solvent, helps promote homeotherapy
Body water content
Fat-free mass of animal’s body = 73% water
causes of water loss
diarrhea, dehydration
functions of water
solvent, helps promote homeotherapy
water absorption occurs mostly in:
large intestine and jejunum
Body water content
Fat-free mass of animal’s body = 73% water

9%
causes of water loss
diarrhea, dehydration
water absorption occurs mostly in:
large intestine and jejunum
_____ BW is blood volume
9%
water losses
Urination,Expiration, Defecation,Perspiration
sources of water
-Drinking water 90% of water needs
Water in food (quite variable)
Metabolic water
Water generated as a product of other metabolic reactions
uses of energy
To make ATP, To generate heat,To synthesize new tissue, To synthesize a new product
Energy in cells can come from:
food, or from tissue.
