Animal waste disposal | Storage of animal waste | Monogastric digestion | Ruminant | Animal nutrition |
---|---|---|---|---|
A liquid form of animal waste that needs to be processed before being used. Can be dangerous if it enters groundwater
What is slurry?
|
Digestion with a one-chambered stomach.
Define monogastric.
|
Any animal that has a four chambered stomach follows the same digestive pattern with the four chambers.
What is the definition of a ruminant?
|
Are large biomolecules, or macromolecules, consisting of one or more long chains of amino acid residues. They perform a vast array of functions within organisms, including catalysing metabolic reactions, DNA replication, responding to stimuli, providing structure to cells, and organisms, and transporting molecules from one location to another.
What is a protein?
|
|
Is a combination of animal urine and solid waste. Can be used for fertilizer as it has a high concentration of nitrogen.
What is manure? What can it be used for? Think $
|
Humans, chickens, etc
Give an example of a monogastric organism.
|
Goat, cow, etc
Give an example of a ruminant.
|
Are the sugars, starches and fibers found in fruits, grains, vegetables and milk products.
What is a carbohydrate?
|
|
Solid waste is more useable since it does not enter groundwater as easily and doesn't need to be processed as much.
Explain the importance/ difference between solid and liquid waste. Which one is generally more useable?
|
Gizzard and provinculus
Give an example of a part of the digestive system that a chicken has that a human does not.
|
The first stomach/ chamber of a ruminant that receives food from the esophagus.
What is the rumen?
|
Any of a diverse group of organic compounds including fats, oils, hormones, and certain components of membranes
What is a lipid?
|
|
Eutrophication, global warming, polluted groundwater (remember video we watched), etc.
Explain the environmental implications of animal waste.
|
Is the decomposition of plant remains and other once-living materials aided by heat to make a soil conditioner
Explain composting scientifically.
|
Less processing
Explain how a monogastric organism may not be able to eat something that a ruminant can.
|
The mouth
Where does the digestive system of a ruminant (and monogastric) begin? (think)
|
Their bonds are easily broken by heat, so they are useful as source of energy because they energy is readily available.
Why (what is unique) are lipids useful as a source of energy
|
Animals have impaired health and have health complications. Crops suffering from drought or excessive rainfall and extreme temperatures. Water is becoming increasingly polluted and cannot be used for plants and animals.
Animal waste has a variety of environmental implications, including global warming. Due to climate change, agriculture is being impacted. This correlation is ironic. Explain how agriculture is being negatively affected.
|
Store on an impenetrable surface so it doesn't enter groundwater, proper temperature control, safe transportation when being moved so it does not escape. No flames.
What are some important factors for safely storing and moving animal waste.
|
Rumen, reticulum, omasum, abomasum
What are the four chambers of the stomach? List them in order.
|
Proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, nucleic acids, etc
What are three key nutrients or macromolecules animals need to live?
