    Animal husbandry is the branch of agriculture where animals are reared, bred and raised for meat, fiber, eggs, milk and other food products.

    Animal husbandry involves livestock raising and selective breeding, focusing on genetic qualities and behavior for profit. It is a significant source of food for many farmers, providing high nutritional value. Animals are bred commercially for dairy products, eggs, meat, and marine animals. The care, breeding, and management of animals are closely monitored under the department of animal husbandry. This large-scale business involves poultry, milk-farms, apiculture, and aquaculture.

    Physical changes are changes in appearnce of substance , change of matter not change of chemical composition . It is reversible in nature. No new substance is formed.It is temporary change. No energy is generated.

    example: melting of ice

    Chemical changes cause a substance to change into an entirely substance with a new chemical formula.It is irreversible in nature. One or more new substances are formed.It is permanent change. Energy (heat, light,sound,etc) is generated.

    example : burning of coal
