animal rights activists may argue that animal experimentation for medicine research is wrong. I agree that high school students should not be conducting dissections but "a pharmacologist with an MD degree is expected to possess skills in animal experimentation. He/she should be able to independently conduct animal experiments‚ which include dissection of animals‚ data collection using various animal models and drugs‚ analysis of data and application of findings to carry out clinical trials."

skeleton is broken up in two divisions: the axial skeleton‚ and the appendicular skeleton. The axil skeleton is made up of 80 bones‚ and the appendicular skeleton is made up of 126 bones. As for the different systems of the body‚ we dissected a fetal pig in groups and indicated each system as we went along. The digestive system is made up of a digestive tract‚ and other organs that help break down and absorb food. The organs that make up the tract are the mouth‚ esophagus‚ stomach‚ small intestine

A cut is completed to separate the kidney in half. There is a thin membrane that covers the kidney. This being the renal capsule. The outer ring‚ the inner section as well as chambers are visible. Both the sheep and the pig kidney have the distinctive kidney bean shape. The cortex of the kidney is striated. The next layer is the the medulla. This area appears quite fatty.
