A deer eats 25kg of herbaceous material per day. The herbacecus material is approximately 20% dry matter(DM) and has an energy content of 10MJ. (kg DM) 1. of the total energy ingested per day, 25% is excreted as undigested materlal. Of the 75% that is digested, 80% is lost to metabolic waste products and heat. The remaining 20% is converted to body tissue. How MI are converted to body tissue on a daily basis? Calculate the percentage of energy consumed that is converted to body tissue • Draw a schematic of energy balante

Essential nutrients
These are the organic compounds present in the food that provide nourishment essential for the development and growth of our body. Nutrients not only provide us with the required energy to carry out various biological processes but are also the building blocks for repair and growth in our bodies.
Vitamins
The vitamins are organic molecules required in low concentration for the proper functioning of the body. They cannot be generated in the organism and are taken into the body through the diet. The lack of proper vitamins results in diverse deficiency disorders. They are thus called essential nutrients. The important vitamins are vitamin A, vitamin B complex, vitamin C, vitamin D, vitamin K, and vitamin E.
