The CVMA accepts the evidence for potential health risks to pets and humans, and holds that the evidence of potential risk outweighs any benefit.

9. Which of the following is correct regarding the modified Atwater factors to calculate metabolizable energy (ME) from a guaranteed analysis? *

3.5 x crude protein + 8.5 x crude fat + 3.5 x crude fibre

8.5 x crude protein + 3.5 x crude fat + 3.5 x NFE

3.5 x crude protein + 8.5 x crude fat + 3.5 x NFE

8.5 x crude protein + 3.5 x crude fat + 8.5 x crude fibre

10. Which of the following statements is true regarding feeding directions on pet food labels? *

The feeding directions on the label are standardized among companies.

There is no risk for over or under feeding a pet if the feeding directions are followed.

Every pet food company uses the modified Atwater equation to determine the energy density of their diets.
