Animal Science PAC
Animal science involves every aspect of producing a wide range of animals and animal products. Farm animal production has changed dramatically over the past years. The image of farming as a red barn, chickens in the yard, pigs in the mud, and cows in the field is no longer accurate. However, animal production is not the sterile, mechanized, "food factory" that is sometimes publicized either. In the Animal Science PAC students will learn how only 3% of the United States population can feed the entire country as well as the many other aspects of animal science. They will also identify the major components of an animal cell, explain the process of cell division, and list and describe the stages of mitosis and meiosis. After studying about beef, horse, and poultry production and management, students will explore the world of animal genetics and animal processing.

cells.
