20.
(5mks)
 Ovum York is released by ovary upon maturity and rabbits follicle

 Ovum received by the funnel(infudibulum)
 Ovum meets sperm in the funnel;fertilisation takes place in the infudibulum
 Chalazae added hold the yolk in infudubulum.egg stays here for 15 minutes ,funnel is
11 cm long
 Yolk moves to the magnesium
7
 The magnesium is 33.6cm long egg stays here for 3 hrs
 The yolk moves to the isthmus .It is 10,6cm long.
 Shell membrane are added to the egg minerals ,water, vitamins are added in the
isthmus
 Egg moves to the shell gland
 A shell is added
 Egg stays here for 18-22 hrs
 The egg moves to the vagina 6.9 cm egg is temporarily stored
 Egg moves out through the clock
(Egg is laid down)
15x1 = 15 marks
21. (a) Lyfe cycle of a host tick

 Egg hatch on the ground/grass
 Larva clutch on the its host when feeding larvae sucks blood gets engorged
 Larvae moves into lymph on the sane host
 Nymph sucks blood and gets engorged
 Nymph falls to the ground and moults into adults
 Adults climb on the second host
 Adults feed and get engorged adults male on the 2nd host.
 The female drops off to lay egg and the cycle continues
7 x 1 = 7 marks
(b)Measures to control external parasites
 Burning infected parasites

 Spraying animals in appropriate
 Hand picking and killing them
 Fencing to keep off other animals and hold animals
 Double fencing to control ticks
 Biological control eg allowing birds to pick ticks
 Rotational grazing
8
 Ploughing pastures
1x8 =8 mrks
c)Factors that affect digestibility in livestock
 The species of an animal

 Form on which the food is offered to the animals
 Amount of food already present in the digestive system the animal .
 The chemical composition of the feed
The ratio of enrgy to protein of the feed.(1x5=5mks)
22. a.Measures of controlling livestock diseases
Proper feeding and nutrition –which avoids nutrition diseases and makes animals healthy to resist
diseases.
Proper breeding and selection-healthy animals should be selected to prevent disease weak and animals
known to be susceptible to some diseases should be called.
Proper housing –all requirement of housing should be neat;eg proper ventilation,leak proof,easy
clean,free from draught etc.
Proper hygen-high levels of hygen should be maintained e.g avoid muddy and filthy surroundings.
Imposition of quarantine-restrictionb of movementof animals and their products from and to the
affected areas in the event of an outbreak of notifiable disease.
Use of prohylatic drugs e.g coccidiostats to control coccidiosis.
Drenching /deworlming of animals to control internal parasites.
Regular vaccinations to imrove resistance to diseases and boost immnunity.
Slaughtering of affected animals
Isolation of sick animals-in separate pens to ominous spreading of disease
Use of antiseptic and disinfections. They contain germicidal chemicals
Treatment of sick animals to prevent spread to healthy animals and restore them back to health. ½
mk ;stating ½ -explaining ; 1x13=13mks)
b) Disease predisposing factors
 Herding
9
 Age of the animal
 Breed of the animal
 Colour of the animal
 Species of the animal
 Change of health condition-external temperature
 Environment of the animal eg parasites and sharp objects
 Physiological condition of the animal eg weakness pregnancy
 Overcrowding 1x7=7mks
