[#356] Maximum amount of protein is found in
Correct Answer

(C) Sheep milk

Explanation

Solution: Maximum amount of protein is found in Sheep milk. The difference in the protein content is due to genetic variation among these animal species. Whey protein content was highest in sheep milk (0.74%) while the lowest content was found in cow milk (0.53%). NCN content was higher in sheep milk (1.31%) and lower in camel (0.91%) and goat milk (0.90%). The whey protein in sheep milk is very digestible. Sheep milk contains 3 times more of this type of protein than goat's or cow's milk which also contributes to better digestibility.

[#357] Big liver disease is also known as
Correct Answer

(A) IBD

Explanation

Solution: Big liver disease is also known as IBD. Liver disease can be a complication of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD), such as ulcerative colitis (UC) or Crohn's disease. The liver, which processes the food you ingest, can develop inflammation if IBD isn't treated appropriately. Unfortunately, some drugs used to treat IBD may also damage the liver.

[#358] Cow milk's protein is called
Correct Answer

(C) Casein

Explanation

Solution: Cow milk's protein is called Casein. Casein and whey protein are the major proteins of milk. Casein constitutes approximately 80% (29.5 g/L) of the total protein in bovine milk, and whey protein accounts for about 20% (6.3 g/L) (19-21). Casein is chiefly phosphate-conjugated and mainly consists of calcium phosphate- micelle complexes.

[#359] Most common grass for animal feeding in Rajasthan
Correct Answer

(A) Sewan

Explanation

Solution: Most common grass for animal feeding in Rajasthan is Sewan. Sewan is the primary grass of extremely arid parts of Jaisalmer, Barmer and Bikaner districts of western Rajasthan in the Indian Thar desert. It thrives well under moisture stress on sandy plains, low dunes and hummocks of this region, receiving annual rainfall below 200 mm.

[#360] Oestrus cycle of pig is
Correct Answer

(A) 21 days

Explanation

Solution: Oestrus cycle of pig is 21 days. The oestrous cycle in pigs spans 18 - 21 days. It consists of a follicular phase of 5 - 7 days and a luteal phase of 13 - 15 days. During the follicular phase, small antral follicles develop into large, pre-ovulatory follicles. The female pig (sow) is ready to breed (reaches puberty) at 5 months of age and will show signs of being in heat. Some slow growing types and animals which are underfed will be older when they reach puberty. The sow will come into heat every 3 weeks throughout the year if she is not mated.
