agriculture- digestive system of a cow‚ koala and dingo Digestion comparison Koala The Koala is the only mammal‚ other than the Greater Glider and Ringtail Possum‚ which can survive on a diet of eucalyptus leaves. Gum leaves contain only about 50% water‚ very little nitrogen‚ large amounts of fibre and potentially toxic oils. Koalas are found to have molars premolars to physically break down the food. Plants contain cellulose‚ which can only be broken down to release cell contents after much crushing

11/29/2011 Animals should not Be Used for Medical Testing Nowadays‚ animals are used for medical testing which is hurtful and not necessary. Tens of millions of animals are used each year in federally and privately funded experiments. Do animals feel the same pain that human feel? How do we know that other humans feel pain? We all know that we ourselves can feel pain. We know this from the direct experience of stubbing toe on a chair‚ or having finger slammed in a drawer. So animals are as same

Animals are used in scientific research‚ because it allows scientists to learn more about human biology and health‚ and for developing new and better medicines. They are used to establish medical treatments that will determine if the medications are safe‚ researchers check the safety of products destined for human use by testing it on animals first‚ animals are also used in other biomedical‚ commercial‚ and health care issues. The use of animals for disease research has many benefits‚ even when some

With macromolecules‚ your body will be bigger‚ better‚ faster‚ stronger‚ and built to last longer! There are four major macromolecules that can give you more energy‚ strength‚ and enough fat to keep you warm and protected. In conclusion‚ the four major macromolecules are important to growth and development because they produce and store energy‚ create muscle to build a repair the body‚ create fat when it gets cold‚ and to tell when to release amino acid to build certain protein. Macromolecules are

INTRODUCTION Macromolecules are highly important organized organic molecules that are found within living cells. These biological molecules help the body execute precise important tasks. There are four types of macromolecules: carbohydrates‚ lipids‚ proteins and nucleic acids. (Karp‚ 2010) This specific experiment showcased the identification of different macromolecules using three different testing methods. Carbohydrates‚ sugar molecules‚ are known as “fast fuel” in the body‚ and they contain

Metabolism is all the chemical reactions that occur within an organism. Metabolism has two-way trajectory organic chemical reactions‚ namely catabolism to unravel molecular organic compounds to gain energy‚ and anabolime of reactions that compose organic compounds of certain molecules‚ which will be absorbed by the body cells. The second track is required by the organism to survive. But with age someone then your metabolism will slow down. It required a variety of ways and methods to speed up the
