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

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

Cesar Rivera BIO-186-003 Fetal Pig Extra Credit Dissection Exercise 3 1. How do the locations of the endocrine organs in the fetal pig compare with those in the human? They are similar except for the pancreas and the adrenal glands. In the fetal pig‚ the adrenal glands are medial to each kidney and inferior to the pancreas rather than atop to kidneys and superior to the pancreas as in humans. 2. Name two endocrine organs located in the throat region? Thymus gland and thyroid gland. 3. Name

of the Internal Organs through the Dissection of a Fetal Pig in Order to Observe and Gain a Keen Insight into the Workings of the Human Organ System For as long as there has been intelligent life there has been medicine‚ from the most rudimentary of herbs to the most advanced of medical techniques‚ the main focus has been the advancement of the species. But understanding how they work has always been the key‚ and the one of the best ways is through dissection. Throughout history the human body

and physiological features of the dissected fetal pig. Another purpose is to comprehend the relationship between structure and function in the body and relate concepts to the structures found in the fetal pig. We must recognize how the different systems in the body work together and develop so the body maintains in homeostasis. Materials: Fetal pig‚ dissecting kit‚ safety goggles‚ latex gloves and paper towels. Procedure: 1. Place the fetal pig ventral side up in the dissecting tray and

I just finished up on the Pig dissection We had to cut open a pig and identify all of what is inside of the pig. My thoughts on the whole dissection was what is it going to look like and how am I going to react to it. My feelings were high because i wanted to know what the inside of a pig looked like. My fears of doing the dissections was how i was going to handle seeing all of the insides‚ normally i am good with that stuff but i never dissected anything besides a frog. I was hoping to learn how

WHAT IS A FETAL PIG ? Fetal pigs are collected from the packing house as a by-product of the meat industry. These pigs are removed from the uterus of pregnant sows‚ taken to our facility where they are preserved. These pigs would otherwise be discarded. REASONS FOR USING FETAL PIGS IN THE CLASSROOM DISSECTION Anatomy of the fetal pig closely resembles that of man. Unlike a frog (an amphibian)‚ the fetal pig is a mammal. Economical - fetal pigs can cost less than using the
