Identify the rabbit and its parts, explain the functions of its fur and ears, discuss sexing, name an endo-parasite, and list reasons for rearing rabbits.

Step 1: Identify the animal and its labeled parts. a) (i) The illustrated animal is a rabbit. a) (ii) The labeled parts are: I: Eye II: Nose III: Mouth IV: Whiskers V: Fur VI: Foreleg VII: Long Ears VIII: Back IX: Rump Step 2: State functions and management practices. b) (i) • Function of part V (Fur): Provides insulation to keep the rabbit warm. • Function of part VII (Long Ears): Used for hearing and thermoregulation (dissipating heat). b) (ii) One management practice carried out on part IX (Rump) is sexing (determining the gender of the rabbit). Step 3: State advantages and name an endo-parasite. c) (i) Two advantages of sexing (practice carried out in IX): • It allows for controlled breeding and genetic selection. • It helps in preventing unwanted pregnancies and overcrowding. c) (ii) One endo-parasite that infests rabbits is Coccidia. Step 4: State control methods and reasons for rearing. d) (i) One way of controlling Coccidia is by administering anti-coccidial drugs or maintaining strict hygiene. d) (ii) Two reasons why rabbits are reared: • For meat production, as rabbit meat is a good source of protein. • For fur production, which can be used in textiles.
