The Physiological and Anatomical Similarities of 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
