QUESTION
Rumination is stimulated by?
OPTIONS
(A) Anaesthetics
(B) Hay diet
(C) Fever
(D) Concentrate diet
ANSWER
(B) Hay diet
EXPLANATION
Hay diet is the correct option because feeding roughage promotes normal ruminal activity and stimulates rumination, whereas diets rich in concentrates generally reduce rumination time. Anaesthetics suppress normal reflexes, fever is not a normal stimulus for rumination, and therefore these alternatives are incorrect.
