The species is known by many common names, including madre de agua, suiban, cenicero, tuno, naranjillo, palo de agua and ketum ayam. [2] It is native to Central America and northern South America. [3] [4] It has also been introduced to other tropical regions such as Vietnam, Cambodia, and the Philippines. [5]
The story was first told in the 1600's and says that the Madre de aguas is a giant boa snake very large and wide with the thickness of a palm tree, has two extrusions similar to horns in the frontal region of his head, and is covered in scales thick and distributed inversely as present in other boa snakes, which is impenetrable to bullets.
Its high protein content allows it to complement low-quality tropical forages. G. sepium can tolerate repeated cutting, every 2 to 4 months depending on the climate. Cutting G. sepium causes it to retain its leaves during the dry season when many forage crops have lost their leaves. In some cases it is the only source of feed during the dry ...

Metabolic water refers to water created inside a living organism through metabolism, by oxidizing energy-containing substances in food and adipose tissue. Animal metabolism produces about 107–110 grams of water per 100 grams of fat, [1] 41–42 grams of water per 100 g of protein, and 60 grams of water per 100 g of carbohydrate.
The two cultivated forms of P. erosus are jícama de agua and jícama de leche, both named for the consistency of their juice. The leche form has an elongated root and milky juice, while the agua form has a top-shaped to oblate root and a more watery, translucent juice and is the preferred form for the market. [3]
Two hydrophobic loops contain conserved asparagine–proline–alanine ("NPA motif") which form a barrel surrounding a central pore-like region that contains additional protein density. [3] Because aquaporins are usually always open and are prevalent in just about every cell type, this leads to a misconception that water readily passes through ...
