38
form of animal husbandry where domesticated animals (known as "livestock") are released onto large vegetated outdoor lands (pastures) for grazing.
Pastoralism
39
of farm animals includes all the organs and tissues associated with the breaking down or digestion of food in the body. It includes the teeth or beak, tongue, the alimentary canal or digestive tract and all the associated gland secreting enzymes and other body fluids
Digestive System
40
is the breakdown of foods substances in the digestive tract into absorbable forms. This process starts from the mouth through mastication which increases the surface area and allows microbes to have quicker access to act the food substances
Digestion
41
A ______________ digestive system has a simple stomach
Monogastric
42
Examples of monogastric animals
Dogs cats swine humans
43
acts to soften and moisten the small food particles. Saliva also contains an enzyme which starts the digestion of starch
Salivary glands
44
— tiny finger-like projections located along the wall of the small intestine that aid in food absorption
Villi
45
— a gland which secretes digestive juices necessary for the digestion of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins
Pancreas
46
(also known as the true stomach of chicken) is the glandular stomach where digestion primarily begins, where gastric enzymes and hydrochloric acid are secreted
Proventiculus
47
In chicken it is where the food is stored and soaked. Food then moves from the crop to the proventriculus
Crop
48
Small intestine is composed of
Duodenum Ileum Jejunum
49
Liquefied food exits the stomach and enters the first portion of the small intestine
(chyme)
50
“blind gut” is located at the beginning of the large intestine it connects the small intestine to the colon. In most animals, the cecum has little function. However in animals such as the horse and rabbit, the cecum is very important in the digestion of fibrous feeds
Cecum
51
: having more than one digestive cavity a polygastric protozoan also : having the stomach divided into several chambers —used of ruminants
Polygastric
52
The ______________ is designed for food to be ingested, eructated (belched up), chewed, and swallowed again
polygastric system
53
refers to grasses,
Forage
54
refers to other high-fiber food sources.
roughages
55
Ruminants will “chew their cud” ______________ their food material and then grind it with their molars at a time when the animal is resting
(regurgitate)
56
small bone at the top of the spine which the backbone connects to which allows a chicken to move their head.
Atlas
57
the 'framework' upon which the body is built – it provides support, protection and enables the animal to move. It consists of bones and connective tissue, including cartilage, tendons, and ligaments. It's also called the musculoskeletal system.
Skeletal system
58
consists of the skull, the ribs and the vertebral column. The skull is similar to a dog’s skull but is more elongated. The vertebral column starts at the base of the skull and runs horizontally along the body.
axial skeleton
59
__________ consists of two forelimbs and two hindlimbs. The forelimb is made up of a scapula, humerus, radius, ulnar, the capus, metacarpals and phalanges.
appendicular skeleton
60
_______________ are the bones located in the heart called ossa cordis. These bones are not attached to any other bones and their function is to provide strength to the soft tissue.
splanchnic skeleton
61
is composed of the cerebrum, cerebellum, and brainste
brain
62
serves as the command center for your body. It is controlled by your brain and governs your motions, thoughts, and instinctive responses to the environment around you. It also regulates other physiological functions and activities including digestion, respiration, and sexual development (puberty).
nervous system
63
is a protective coating that surrounds each nerve. Myelin insulates the nerve and allows signals to pass through
Myelin
64
is made up of your brain and spinal cord. Your brain sends information to the rest of your body via your nerves.
central nervous system (CNS)
65
system is made up of several nerves that branch out from your CNS all around your bod
peripheral nervous
66
directs your voluntary motions.
somatic nerve system
67
regulates the actions you perform without thinking about them.
autonomic nervous system
68
are bundles of axons in the peripheral nervous system (PNS) that act as information highways to carry signals between the brain and spinal cord and the rest of the body.
Nerves
69
is a complex network of glands and organs. It uses hormones to control and coordinate your body's metabolism, energy level, reproduction, growth and development, and response to injury, stress, and mood. The following are integral parts of the endocrine system:
endocrine system
70
The ________ is located at the base of the brain, near the optic chiasm where the optic nerves behind each eye cross and meet. The hypothalamus secretes hormones that stimulate or suppress the release of hormones in the pituitary gland, in addition to controlling water balance, sleep, temperature, appetite, and blood pressure
hypothalamus
71
An ______________ is located on top of each kidney. Like many glands, the adrenal glands work hand-in-hand with the hypothalamus and pituitary gland. The adrenal glands make and release corticosteroid hormones and epinephrine that maintain blood pressure and regulate metabolism
adrenal gland
72
The __________ delivers oxygen, nutrients, hormones, and other important substances to cells and organs in the body. It plays an important role in helping the body meet the demands of activity, exercise, and stress. It also helps maintain body temperature, among other things
cardiovascular system
73
. It fights invading germs in the blood (the spleen contains infectionfighting white blood cells) it controls the level of blood cells (white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets) it filters the blood and removes any old or damaged red blood cells.
Spleen
74
These tiny blood vessels have thin walls. Oxygen and nutrients from the blood can move through the walls and get into organs and tissues. The capillaries also take waste products away from your tissues. Capillaries are where oxygen and nutrients are exchanged for carbon dioxide and waste
Capillaries
75
______________ is the network of organs and tissues that help you breathe. It includes your airways, lungs and blood vessels. The muscles that power your lungs are also part of the respiratory system. These parts work together to move oxygen throughout the body and clean out waste gases like carbon dioxide.
respiratory system
76
Muscle that helps your lungs pull in air and push it out
Diaphragm
77
: Tiny air sacs in the lungs where the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide takes place.
Alveoli
78
The ___________ is a passive biological system that removes excess, unnecessary materials from the body fluids of an organism, so as to help maintain internal chemical homeostasis and prevent damage to the body.
