Breeding

has been seen in the consumption of fish from consumers, increase fishing from wild fish stock and rapid increase in new fish farms. According to animal welfare, the main areas those are highly prior are divided into four various steps: period of breeding, period of growth, methods of capturing and handling, methods of slaughtering (Jenny Bergqvist, 2010). According to Jenny Bergqvist (2010), the environment affected by fish farming divided into 5 various categories: Discharge of waste and…

What is the core differences between creationism and evolutionism? Creationism and Evolutionism(both atheistic and theistic evolutionism) are contradicting theories that try to explain the nature of organismal evolution, they are two very different theories. Creationism states that God does exists and he does interfere in the universe. Creationist believe in the design arguments and believe all that all complexities in our universe are products of intelligent design. While the two different…

is the scientific process of resurrecting species that have died out, or gone extinct (Britannica). Scientists are using three different techniques in their attempt to resurrect these species; these techniques consist of breeding back, genetic engineering, and cloning. Breeding back is described as…

dangerous breeds through bite statistics or the amount of bites per breed, small dogs may be subject to banning as well. Animal control officers offered some effective alternatives to breed specific legislation which are, prevent aggressive dogs from breeding, socialize young puppies appropriately, and provide appropriate care for adult dogs. Another alternative to breed banning is to provide adult dogs with appropriate discipline, meaning always be in control of the dog, make sure dogs are…

Recombination and mutation are the motivation of evolution. Recombination is critical for repairing DNA lesions and for chromosomal pairing, and exchange during meiosis (Krejci et al. 2012). Recombination does not occur uniformly on the chromosomes of eukaryotes. Meiotic recombination in well studied yeast revealed that non-uniformity of recombination was observed when the frame of reference is an entire chromosome, multigene region and a pair of genes or a small region upstream of a gene…

placing the blame on Dawn’s shoulders. “When she was pulled off the ledge it wasn’t necessarily aggressive behavior by the whale” (Blackfish), said SeaWorld executives, so they could continue to deny the aggressiveness of Tilikum in order to fund their breeding…

Age of puberty attainment in beef cattle is an important aspect for producers. This is because age at puberty is a key factor for a heifer’s lifetime reproductive performance. Beef cattle management programs aim for heifers to conceive by two years of age, but this can be a challenge when producing Bos indicus cattle. Puberty attainment in Bos indicus cattle is considerably lengthier than Bos taurus cattle, with the age at first calving typically being 40 months or more (Nogueira, 2003).…

Each and every year, throughout the United States, millions of animals are left abandoned, abused or even killed. In addition to this issue, there is currently a pet overpopulation occurring in the U.S due to excessive breeding at puppy mills, dog breeding operations that put profit over the health and well-being of the animals. The majority of these animals, when left abandoned, are then euthanized due to minimal room in shelters. Upon having strong feelings towards this problem and wanting to…

methamphetamine (MA) addiction. In this experiment, selective breeding mice self-administered orally, high or low amounts of methamphetamine. The purpose the testing was to identify differences between the MADR lines in terms of genes to influence addiction related processes. The two strains of mice were placed in MA-induced conditioned place preference and conditioned taste aversion tests. The mice were tested in each generation from a breeding pair of thirteen per line. The first thirteen…

Typically EVA is most often associated with equines, but has been confirmed in other species such as; llamas, alpacas, and donkeys. EVA is a disease of the respiratory system that affects equines at any age. This virus is usually transmitted during breeding, but can also be transmitted by aerosol, venereal, congenital routes or indirect contact from fomites. In addition, stallions can be carriers of EVA and will continue to shed the virus in their semen. EVA is not a zoonotic or reportable…
