who got keep rabbits ?
-
Pandas always stick to one type of bamboo. Koalas only stick to one type of leaves....
-
erm.. fatty acids and glycerol are the products of digestion of lipids. but these components an be convert from glucose, aminoacids, sphingolipids, steriods and so on.
it is WAY easier to get fat then u think. pun intented. -
dun know neber let it eat. rabbits like jackfruit leaves also. but a bit hard to get.Originally posted by the.raven:like tapioca?

hell yeah.. and they stil manage to get fat. now do you all know why??Originally posted by CoolMyth:Pandas always stick to one type of bamboo. Koalas only stick to one type of leaves.... -

how you managed to get so close ? -
the squirrel blind.Originally posted by crazy monkey: how you managed to get so close ? -
squirrels are damn greedy, all you have to do is put your hand inside your pocket, they will think you are going to give it food and come to you, but they are very quick, so even if they are right in front of u, its very hard to catch it. and when u try to catch them they always run up trees and squeak loudly at you, as if to say you are an asshole. but got one time i saw this n00b squirrel sitting on the edge of a rubbish bin eating something, so I pretended I never see it and walk past and suddenly gave it a puch, the squirrel fell inside the rubbish bin and was so mad it started to squeak at me. LOL.Originally posted by crazy monkey: how you managed to get so close ?
then there was once I was trying to catch pigeons, I spent like 10 minutes around the pigeons so that they get used to my presense and will not fly away when I approach. then when I was about to reach for the pigeons, this stupid squirrel thought I was going to give the pigeons food, and it came over and chased all the pigeons away, and I was like wtf. the squirrel saw that I was not going to give it food so it ran away. from then on I vowed to catch a squirrel, greedy bastards. -

must use a cage -
r u allow to keep squirrel as pet?
weekend i went c ah ming .. saw a lizard from oz .. very special .. a little longer than an arm's length n got blue tongue n skin like snake .. cannot remember the name liao .. they say confiscated from house .. sg not allow to keep although very common in oz n many people keep as pet .. -

tt's sterotyping k...Originally posted by starblue:erm... but carrots really is the rabbit's fav food. in fact, some species of rabbits NEED carrots to survive....
rabbit's teeth grows only when it is worn out. then it stays the same size until it gets worn out a bit then start growing again. if i am not wrong...
they like it coz its sweet n not becoz its carrot

but our body also uses huge amount of glu n lipids.. so as long as the usage is greater then or equals to in put, i dun c a reason y u can get fat tt easilyOriginally posted by starblue:erm.. fatty acids and glycerol are the products of digestion of lipids. but these components an be convert from glucose, aminoacids, sphingolipids, steriods and so on. it is WAY easier to get fat then u think. pun intented. -
maybe they like apple alsoOriginally posted by hopy:tt's sterotyping k...

that's a blue tongued skink...
it's pretty cool but i think it's a protected speciesOriginally posted by margarita:r u allow to keep squirrel as pet?

erm... actually i meant that you can synthesize adipose very easily cos there are so many metabolic pathways that ccan lead to its synthesis.... the pun that we can get plumb easily is secondary.Originally posted by hopy:but our body also uses huge amount of glu n lipids.. so as long as the usage is greater then or equals to in put, i dun c a reason y u can get fat tt easily -
i think there's more pathways leading to the synthesis of glucose then adipose tissue and it is when there r excess of glu then they got converted into adipose tissue as a form of energy storage lorOriginally posted by starblue:erm... actually i meant that you can synthesize adipose very easily cos there are so many metabolic pathways that ccan lead to its synthesis.... the pun that we can get plumb easily is secondary. -
erm... glucose we dun say synthesis.. cos glucose only obtained from catabolic activity. and i wanted to mean synthesis of FATS got a lot of pathways.... not adipose (which makes the tires around the tummy). sorry about that... does this make it clearer??Originally posted by hopy:i think there's more pathways leading to the synthesis of glucose then adipose tissue and it is when there r excess of glu then they got converted into adipose tissue as a form of energy storage lor -
keeping in mind that FATS and adipose is not the same.
-
adipose tissue is the scientific name for fats lor, they r the SAME thingOriginally posted by starblue:keeping in mind that FATS and adipose is not the same.

u know there is such a thing called gluconeogensis, its uses stuff like oxaloacetate to make glucose n glucose is nt juz obtained fr catabolic activities lorOriginally posted by starblue:erm... glucose we dun say synthesis.. cos glucose only obtained from catabolic activity. and i wanted to mean synthesis of FATS got a lot of pathways.... not adipose (which makes the tires around the tummy). sorry about that... does this make it clearer?? -
erm... the synthesis of glucose only occurs in plants... the oxaloacetate thing is involved in photosynthesis... but we're talking about animals here.
adipose tise refers specifically to the lumps of fat deposited under the skin. fats in general include a lot of things, including adipose tissue. hopy studies biology?? how old are you???
