PRE-LAB: 1. The value to students of dissecting a mammal‚ especially a pig because most students like to learn hands on giving them an opportunity to dissect a pig gives us a chance to give us a visual and help us understand the systems in a mammal. 2. My feeling about dissecting a pig is nervous because it is a real pig even though it is fetal. I feel like I will end up cutting the pig in the wrong spot. I am also excited to dissect the pig because I have never experienced this before and think

the Human and Fetal Pig Body Abstract Through the dissection of the fetal pig‚ we were able to compare and contrast the structure and functions of the organs to those of a human. We dissected the pig and observed all the exterior and interior structures. We found that because both are mammals‚ the fetal pig’s structure was almost identical to the human body. Intro Since humans and pigs are both mammals‚ it can be very useful to study the fetal pig. We dissected the pig so that we should see

FETAL PIG ESSAY Through the dissection of the fetal pig‚ we were able to compare and contrast the structure and functions of the organs to those of a human. We dissected the pig and observed all the exterior and interior structures. The fetal pig’s structure was almost identical to the human body. Since humans and pigs are both mammals‚ it can be very useful to study the fetal pig. We dissected the pig so that we should see the skeletal and organ structures that we learned about in class.

Imbibition in Kidney Beans * Aim of Experiment: * To investigate the effect that emersion in salt solutions has on imbibition in kidney beans. * Safety Considerations: * One must use extreme caution when working with chemicals. Always wear protective goggles and gloves when handling them. KCl is slightly hazardous in case of skin contact‚ eye contact‚ ingestion‚ or inhalation. In case of eye contact‚ immediately flush eyes with plenty of water for at least 15 minutes. Seek

Dissection lab In the past 3 weeks we have been dissecting animals of all different sorts. We dissected a worm‚ crayfish‚ grasshopper‚ and a perch (fish). In my conclusion I will explain the diet‚ habitat‚ and how these relate to the structure of these animals. First I am going to be talking about the worm. The Earthworms have setae in groups around or under their body. The setae‚ paired in groups on each segment‚ can be moved in and out to grip the ground or the walls of a burrow. Worms travel

Cow - Eye Dissection Lab Report Name: Eli Wilson Group #: 1 Group Members: Anthony Sophia Emily Specimen Name: Cow Eye Purpose: To look at the different parts in the cow eye. Materials: A laptop A lab notebook Pencil or pen Background: There are many critical parts of the eye that help you see. There are many parts of the eye that help you interpret images: the cornea‚ lens‚ retina‚ iris‚ and optic nerve. The optic nerve takes in light from the retina and send it’s to the brain. When

Introduction The dissection of the fetal pig in the laboratory is important because pigs and humans have the same level of metabolism and have similar organs and systems. Also‚ fetal pigs are a byproduct of the pork food industry so they aren ’t raised for dissection purposes‚ and they are relatively inexpensive. Procedure - as in the text book Purpose: The purpose of such activity is to dissect the fetal pig and observe various organs. Materials: Safety goggles String Dissecting pins Lab apron Scalpel

Organ System Differentiation During Fetal Pig Dissection Abstract This report represents an in depth biological study of the sus scrofa and its internal organs located in the ventral body cavity. The purpose of this lab is to compare and contrast the functions of organ systems of humans and fetal pigs‚ primarily those contained within the ventral body cavity‚ which includes both thoracic and abdominal cavities. Also‚ to implement new skills such as dissection and the use of a scalpel as well as other

experiment was to identify the internal and external organs of the fetal pig. Hypothesis: External Anatomy External parts of the pig can be identified. Digestive System All digestive organs of the pig can be identified. Respiratory System All respiratory system organs of the pig can be identified. Circulatory System The circulatory parts of the pig can all be identified. Materials: The needed for the experiment are as follows: Fetal pig‚ preserved Dissecting tray Cord/twine T-pins Paper toweling Plastic

Anatomy & Physiology I March 17‚ 2008 Lab Report- Fetal Pig The purpose of dissecting the fetal pig is to experience way the body looks internally. The fetal pig body organs are similar to the organs in a human body as well as the functions. My first step was to start cutting from the neck/cervical down to the midsection of the body. Then I cut the skin off so I can see the different muscles groups‚ such as the pectoralis major across the chest. However‚ I had to be very careful while
