Question Answer
___ % of all production costs is ____ 70 , Animal diet
Nutrition is key to production because... We can only manage what we can measure
The Main Nutrients are.. 1. Water 2. Carbohydrates 3. Protein 4. Lipids 5. Vitamins 6. Minerals
Water is the.. cheapest, most abundant and essential nutriant
Which nutriant deficancy will kill first? Water
Who has the most total body water (TBW) on average? Infants
Rank body water average 77% - Infants 60% - Adult Males 50% - Adult females
Why do Males have a higher TBW than Females? Males typically have higher muscle percentage
Water content in body tissues Muscles - 75% Adipose - 15% Fresh bone - 30% Tooth enamel - 5%
Which body tissue has the greatest amount of water content? Muscles
What is Adipose? Fat
What percentage of water loss will cause death? 20%
What percentage of water loss will cause strong thirst? 2%
What percentage of water loss will cause impaired preformance? 3%
What percentage of water loss will cause difficulty concentrating? 5%
What percentage of water loss will cause Dizziness? 8%
What percentage of water loss will cause Muscle spasms and delirium? 10%
Which nutriants are dry matter? Carbs Protein Lipids Vitamins Minerals
Which nutriants are inorganic? Minerals
Which nutriants are called 'Ash'? Minerals
Which nutriants are organic? carbs protein lipids vitamins
Is water still in the body? No, it's turned over/recycled
How often is water turned over? ~ 3 days
What are the main sources of water? 1. Fresh drinking water 2. Water from food 3. Metabolic
How much water in intracellular? How much in interstital? 66% , 33%
Highest K+ concentration? Intracellular
Highest Na+/Cl- Consentration Extracellular
Is interstitial and extracellular the same thing? Yes
Is water concentration heavily regulated intra- or extracellularly? Intercellularly, the body 'hates' salt
Catabolism Breakdown/destruction
Anabolism Growth/ Building
Bioavailabiliy Proportion of substabce that is absorbed into general circulation
Minerals Na+, K+, Ca2+, Cl-, Mg2+
What is Cytosol? The fluid in the cell (makes up Cytoplasm)
What is the Cytosol made up of? Water
What does Water do? 1. Transports 2. Dictates Osmoality 3. Is apart of many rxn's 4. Lubricates and cushions joints 5. Gives cells shape 6. Apart of A/B regulation 7. Maintains body temp.
Human blood pH? ~7.4
Why does water have to be maintained between 7.35 - 7.45? Any lower will cause acidosis Any higher will cause alkalosis
What is acidosis? Body fluids are too acidic (Too little Biarbonate/Too much H+(acid))
What is alkalosis Body fluids are too basic/alkaline (Too much Bicarbonate/Too little H+(acid))
Types of water loss? Sensible and Insensible
Sensible water loss? Urine Feces Lactation
Insensible water loss Lungs (vapor) Skin (sweat)
Dietary factors that increase water intake 1. More food 2. More protein 3. More salt 4. More indigestible fiber 5. Accessability
Why does fiber increase water intake Fiber absorbs water
Environmental and phsycological factors that increase water intake 1. Temp. Stress 2. Gestation/pregnancy 3. Lactation 4. Work 5. Age* 6. Disease 7. Species
How does age affect water intake? The older an animal gets, the less they need to drink due to lower maintainance requirements (less muscle = less water intake) (Less bone = less water intake)
List species water intake per BW% from MOST to LEAST Caprine/Ovine (Dairy) > Bovine (dairy) > Bovine (Meat) > Caprine/Ovine (Meat) > Avian > Porcine > Equine
List species water intake frequency from MOST to LEAST* [May be wrong don't feel like checking atm] Avian > Porcine > Equine > Caprine/Ovine > Bovine
Are water quantity and quality important? Yes, changes in both change water consumption
What effects water quality? 1. Nitrates/ites 2. Fluoride 3. Heavy Metals 4. Ca, Mg, Na salts 5. Organic toxins 6. Pathogenic Organisms
What factors effect water quantity 1. Facility 2. Envrionmental 3. Dietary restrictions/Deficiancies
What Facility factors effect water quantity? - Capacity - Animal dominance/guarding - Water flow rate
What Environmental factors effect water quantity? - Increase Heat - Freezing temps. -Drought
