Antidiurectic hormone- is a hormone produced by the brain that causes the kidney to release less water,
decreasing the amount of urine produced.

Average semen produced by male- 1.25 to 5.00 mL, or 1,500 per second, for production it can generate
up to 8 Billion sperm.

Nutrition value- balance ratio of the essential nutrients, carbohydrates, fat, protein, minerals, and
vitamins in items of food or diet concerning the nutrient requirements of their consumer.

Androgens- sex hormone produced by testes.

Isthmus- part of the thyroid gland consist of two lobes connected to each other by a bridge of tissue.

Gonadotropin- immunological protection of foal during pregnancy formation accessory CL in mare.

Gestation of horses- 11-12 months

Group of lion- pride


Integumentary System

- Is the largest organ system of the body that forms a physical barrier between the external
environment and the internal environment that it serves to protect and maintain.

Components
1. Skin
2. Hyperdermis
3. Associated glands
4. Hair, wool, fur
5. Nails, claws

GENERAL FUNCTION

1. Physical Protection- provide covering and protection


2. Immunity- skin is the body’s first line of defense
3. Wound healing- orchestrates the wound healing
4. Thermoregulation- skin conserves or releases heat
5. Vitamin D synthesis- from the sun
6. Sensation-sensory nerve

Skin- external covering of the body continuous with the exterior membranes of the respiratory,
urogenital, and digestive tracts.

Layers

Epidermis/cuticle- no blood vessels.

Dermis or corium- with blood vessels, nerves, hairs, follicles, muscle fibers and glands.

The sebaceous glands- secrete oily substances that lubricates hair and skin.

THE APPENDAGES

Hair- general surface covering of the animal body. In sheep it is called wool.

Feather- outgrowth of skin peculiar to the bird but similar in structure and origin to the scales of fish.

Hoof- Horny covering of the distal end of the digit.

Horns- Encloses the horn processes of the frontal bone.

BODY TEMPERATURE REGULATION

1. Homeotherms or warm-blooded animals- whose body temperature is largely independent of


that of the environment.
2. Poikilotherm or cold-blooded animals- whose body temperature varies directly with that of the
environment.

HOMEOTHERMS
Chemical regulation- altering the metabolic rate by adjusting the production of certain hormones such
as thyroxine and/or epinephrine.

Physical devices and activities- sweating with evaporation of water from the skin.

PROCESS OF HEAT DISSIPATION

1. Conduction- involves direct contact of the animal with a part of its environment.
2. Convection- heat is transferred to or from the animal by the movement of heated air particles.
3. Radiation- involves the transfer of heat by means of electromagnetic waves at the speed of
186,000 miles per second.
