Over Thanksgiving dinner, a college student related that there is a law that cafeterias are required to put laxatives into the food they serve. The purpose of the additives is to reduce the chances of food poisoning by limiting the length of time that the food is in the body.[Collected via e-mail, September 2005]. This is my first year in college and there's word going around that the food people put laxatives in the food.It's a very small amount and it's supposedly intended so that if there is ever food poisoning, that the food would be flushed out anyways so no one would find out and sue the school.elief in the legend fails to take into account what would happen to a school foolhardy enough to secretly dose its students with any kind of medication. Just about any drug can prompt an adverse reaction in at least a few people, causing them to become ill, or maybe even to die.
The gestation length for all breeds of cattle averaged together is 283 days. The range is 279 for Jersey and up to 292 for Brahman. On the average, the Continental breeds of Charolais, Simmental, and Limousin exhibit gestation lengths of 289 days. English-bred cattle such as Angus, Shorthorn, and Hereford exhibit, on the average, shorter gestation lengths of 281, 282 and 285 respectively. Within those breeds the average gestation length can vary an additional twelve days on either side of the average for the breed.
Gestation is the carrying of an embryo or fetus inside female viviparous animals. It is typical for mammals, but also occurs for some non-mammals.Mammals during pregnancy can have one or more gestations at the same time (multiple gestations).The time interval of a gestation is called the gestation period. In human obstetrics, gestational age refers to the embryonic or fetal age plus two weeks.This is approximately the duration since the woman's last menstrual period (LMP) began.estation is the carrying of an embryo or fetus inside female viviparous animals.
