Identification

• One male and one female have an exclusive mating relationship for a life-time or serially is called monogamy
• Domestic animals being slaughtered for human consumption is called food animals
• Stamp or mark that represents the approval of Meat Inspector is called brand
• Mating of closely related animals is called inbreeding
• The percentage of an animal's carcass weight relative to its live weight is called dressing percentage
• Prior to bleeding, it is the procedure of making the food animals unconscious is called stunning
• Combined study of cytology and genetics or the study of chromosomes is called cytogenetics
• Registered establishment for slaughtering food animals for human consumption is called meat establishment
• The process of selective mating of animals with desirable genetic traits to maintain or enhance these traits in future generation is called animal breeding
• Body of any slaughtered animals after bleeding and dressing is called carcass
• Marked for unsound, unhealthy, and unfit carcass for human consumption is called condemned
• Meat that sourced from animals that was not undergone any substantial physical, microbial and chemical change is called hot meat
• One or more males have a relationship with one or more females is called polygamy
• Withholding of feed from the animal prior to slaughtering is called fasting
• Process of cutting carcass into standard wholesale and retail cuts is called fabrication
• The removal of animal body parts that are not intended for human consumptions is called dressing
• Mating of males and females livestock animals of different breed types or compositions is called crossbreeding
• Specific group of domestic animals having homogenous appearance, behaviour and other characteristics that distinguish it from other organisms of the same species is called breed
• Meat from food animals that was illegally slaughtered and sold to public is called unconscious
• Mating of males or females livestock animals of the same type or breed is called pure breeding
