The beauty of research experiments is that it's where knowledge is born. For example, Carey pointed out that a statement in a textbook is a result of a study someone did and other people's confirmation of it. It's an enlightenment. She is an associate professor of animal and nutritional sciences at UNH, and has been working on this study for five and a half years. During the actual experiment, she studied the relationship between energy intake, exercise, and fat tissue with 24 female miniature Yucatan swine.
Swine are hoofed mammals that include hogs and pigs.
That's a real danger with any animal research. It's pieces of the puzzle. In fact, Carey hopes that someone gets the same results of her study in order to confirm it. You've got to get rid of it because it interferes with fat breakdown. But I was interested in the nuisance.
