Term
the reason the High Salt diet had the effect it did
Definition
Due to the diuretic effect of salt (eXtension, 2017), the birds given the high salt diet drank more water than all the other birds while they were still alive. This caused their feathers to become wetter and their litter to have a higher water content than the other birds (eXtension, 2017). These birds were also some of the largest birds and had excess fluid in their body cavities, larger kidneys and testes, and a pendulous crop
Term
the reason the Low vitamin D/Low Calcium diet had the effect it did
Definition
because without vitamin D, chickens can not absorb the calcium they need for the proper growth and development of the bones and the beak (Pandit, 2015). The thicker growth plate may also be caused by this diet, because this condition, known as tibial dyschondroplasia
Term
the reason the Salt Deficiency diet had the effect it did
Definition
because chickens use sodium dependent co-transporters to take up amino acids (Benson, 2017). While these chicks were still alive, they were also very lethargic, because sodium is needed for some important physiological processes, such as osmoregulation (Leeson, 2016), metabolism, and proper functioning of muscles and nerves (eXtension, 2017). Sodium is also needed for the uptake of monosaccharides in a transport mechanism that requires sodium
Term
the reason the high energy/low protein diet had the effect it did
Definition
because low protein diets increase the feed conversion ratio (Ross Tech, n.d.) and increase deposition of abdominal fat
Term
the reason the low energy/high protein diet had the effect it did
Definition
because more protein in the diet increases the live weight of the bird (Ross Tech, n.d.) and reduces deposition of body fat
Term
the reason the raw soybean meal diet had the effect it did
Definition
The reason for the smaller body weight is because raw soybeans have a trypsin inhibitor, which makes a chicken less able to metabolize and use amino acids (University of Georgia, 2016). Not only is trypsin an active protease, but it also helps to convert procarboxypeptidase and chymotrypsinogen into the active proteases carboxypeptidase and chymotrypsin, respectively (Benson, 2017). Trypsin also helps in the synthesis of enterokinase, which converts trypsinogen into trypsin (Benson, 2017). If trypsin is inhibited, it can not do its job properly, which leads to smaller live weight due to the chicken taking up less amino acids and proteins. Meanwhile, the pancreas responds to this by making more trypsinogen, making the pancreas bigger.
