The kind of food given to animals regardless of whether or not it has a good balance of nutrients they need
Diet
It is the study of various physical and chemical processes that transform food elements to body elements and influence of various feed additives to various processes in the body
Nutrition
Any material both natural in origin and synthetically prepared that when properly used have nutritional value in the diet
Feed stuff
Substances or elements found in the diet that are very necessary to support animal life processes these are carbohydrates fats proteins vitamins minerals and water
Nutrients

Metabolism
Any material that comes naturally in both plants and animals including the byproducts prepared from them
Feed
It is the transport of all digested nutrients to all parts of the body tissues and cell
Absorption
The process of breaking down food particles through mechanical enzymatic or microbial process in preparation for absorption
