VETERINARIAN AND PHYSICS
The title of this article seems rediculous? How come the
vet profession is connected with physics ?? Not to mention which level of
physics is used ?? Is it a high school level or is it is a 1-2 college smestery
level? Or may be physics a higher level such as biophysics ??
Life, including animal life, holds many mysteries. Many
mysteries have been revealed, but many have not. Physics is one of the sciences
that is expected to be able to help unravel the mystery, why? The answer is
simple, because this science deals with nature, including the universe in which
life is involved. If we look further, nature shapes the life in it. Many
theories that have an evolutionary tone such as the theory of Jean Baptise de
Lamarck who said the pattern of animal life due to the adaptive processes they
experienced / changes in the environment they inhabit. The case of the
lengthening of the giraffe's neck is one of the basic studies in which animals
inevitably have to stretch their necks to take food in the trees whose position
is higher because the food in the lower position has been eaten by other living
creatures. So the essence of Lamarck's theory of evolution is:
1. The environment has an influence on the characteristics
and traits produced through environmental adaptation.
2. Characteristics and characteristics that are formed will
be inherited to the offspring.
3. Organs that are frequently used will develop and enlarge,
while organs that are rarely used will experience shrinking, or even disappear

Biophysics is one of the sciences focused on studying life
in general, from the cellular level to life at the macro level, readers who are
interested in knowing biophysics briefly can read it in my paper at
http://www.shvoong.com. in this paper is more focused on veterinary physics
that discusses many aspects of physical / physical systems in animals and also
discusses the various possible abnormalities that can be caused if there is
interference with the system. some simple examples of aspects of veterinary
physics include:
1.Statics that discusses how to position an animal in a
normal state (standing, lying down, etc.), because if we know this state, then
we will also know the state of an animal whose posture is not normal.
2. Dynamics: discussing how animals move (walking or
running), by knowing their normal conditions, we can analyze if there are
abnormalities in the way animals move, for example in determining / diagnosing
cases of lameness
3. Analysis of the construction of the animal's body, in
this case a lot is discussed about the types of materials that make up the
animal's body, for example the structure of the randomized bottom which is
unique (hard, but quite flexible). for example, if you are a veterinarian, you
might have studied the anatomy of a horse / cow traced which has been cleaned
(market language: nails) where its flexibility can be observed from its ability
to bounce if it is dropped from a certain height
