Description
Summary:Trio purpose of Ihıs study was to determine Ihe macroanatomical features and length and weight of Ihe digestive organs located between esophagus and cloaca of the partridges (A graeca). By measuring and weighing of the organs and Iheir relations to body weight and lenglh were determined. For this purpose, 16 adult Rock partridges (32 weok of ago, 8 male and 8 female) were used. Partridges were dissected as Iresh and fixed m formaldehyde. There were no significant differences between the male and females Rock partridges wilh respect to alimentary tract organ mac-roanatomicaly. As a difference, the weight of ihe female fresh dissected pancreas ol female partridges was heavier to these ol the male partridges (P<0.05).
