Question 7 of 40

7. Question

Which of the following identification methods could be used in poultry production? Option 1 Banding

Branding
Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Notching
Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Tattooing
Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The identification method that could be used in poultry production is banding. Banding involves attaching a small, numbered plastic or metal band to the bird's leg. The band is usually placed on the bird's right leg, although in some countries it is placed on the left leg. The band serves as a unique identifier for each bird, allowing farmers to keep track of individual birds and monitor their health, growth, and production. Branding and notching are also used as identification methods in some types of livestock, but they are not suitable for poultry because they can cause injury or infection. Tattooing, on the other hand, can be used in poultry production, but it is less common than banding because it requires specialized equipment and training. Tattooing involves placing a small, permanent mark on the bird's skin using ink or a needle. Overall, banding is a simple, safe, and effective method of identifying poultry in commercial production.

Question 37 of 40

37. Question

Which of the following nutrients is required most for the healthy development of the part labeled I? Option 1 Calcium@

Fat Option 3 Protein
Correct Incorrect Correct answer

Vitamin D
Correct Incorrect Correct answer

The nutrient that is required most for the healthy development of the part labeled I is calcium. Calcium is an essential mineral that is necessary for building and maintaining strong bones and teeth. The part labeled I is likely referring to the skeletal system, which is made up of bones, and these require calcium to grow and develop properly. Without enough calcium, bones can become weak and brittle, which can increase the risk of fractures and other bone-related problems. While the other nutrients listed - fat, protein, and vitamin D - are also important for overall health, they are not as directly linked to bone development and strength as calcium is.
