Question

The fleshy evident mass found between the forelimbs of cow is called ___?
A. Brisket
B. Rump
C. Dewlap
D. Flank

Answer 1

Hint:
Cattle farming includes raising two types of animals: one for milk production and another for labour purposes like irrigation, ploughs, etc. Cattle that provide milk are called dairy animals. Examples include cows, buffalo, goats, etc. Animals that are used for labour are called "draught animals."

Complete step by step answer:
The cattle’s body is divided into five regions: the head, neck, body forelimbs, and hind limbs. A fleshy bulging mass between and in front of the forelimbs is called a brisket. There are two briskets on each beef carcass, one on each side. It comes from the section above the foreleg and below the chuck.
The rump is long wide and nearly level from hook bones to pin bones, with clean cuts, and free from patchiness. The dewlap is a loose, wavy fold of skin hanging between the brisket and chin. The flank is a triangular-shaped hook bone.

Option ‘A’ is correct

Additional Information:
The degree of development of some parts of the animal body has a relationship with the usefulness of the animal. For example, udder size and milk production in cows, development of legs and ability to work in bullocks, etc. Understanding anatomy is essential for the classification and recognition of breeds of animals and for giving exact information and communication at the time of injury, sickness, purchase of an animal, etc.

Note:
A smooth, glossy coat and thin, mellow, medium, loose, pliable skin are very good indicators of dairy character. Fleshy brisket, coarseness of body, and a short, thick neck are characteristics associated with beef.
