Animal Science

2. – Domesticated animals that have returned to a wild state, often living independently in natural environments.
4. – Animals with a specialized stomach that allows them to digest plant materials through fermentation (e.g., cows, sheep).
7. – The care, cultivation, and breeding of animals, often in agricultural settings.
9. – Organisms that regulate their body temperature internally, often called warm-blooded animals (e.g., mammals, birds).
11. – The mating of animals from different breeds or species to achieve desired traits in offspring.
13. System – The pattern of mating between animals, such as monogamy, polygamy, or polyandry.
15. – The study of animal behavior, particularly in natural environments.

1. – Measures taken to prevent the introduction and spread of harmful pathogens and diseases in animals.
3. – Animals that primarily eat meat (e.g., lions, wolves).
5. – Organisms that rely on external environmental heat sources to regulate body temperature (e.g., reptiles, amphibians).
6. – Animals that primarily eat plants (e.g., cows, elephants).
8. Pathology – The study of diseases in animals, including their causes, effects, and prevention.
10. – Animals that consume both plant and animal matter (e.g., humans, pigs).
12. – The process by which wild animals are adapted to live alongside humans for specific purposes like food, labor, or companionship.
14. – The scientific study of animals, including their biology, behavior, and classification.
