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

psychological relationship between music and the mind is very powerful. The auditory cortex in the temporal lobe of the brain connects directly or indirectly to other major nerves of the body. These connections include the nerves in the back muscles‚ larynx‚ lungs‚ heart‚ and the abdominal organs‚ including the entire digestive tract. It is because of these major connections to the auditory nerves that music can somehow affect all these vital organs. Music can activate the limbic system of the brain

travel back in time to observe these ancestors; scientists must use other kinds of evidence to understand what happened. One thing that makes us human is our speech‚ our larynx or voice box sits lower in the throat in humans than in chimps one of several features that enable human speech. Human ancestors evolved a descended larynx roughly 350‚000 year ago. We possess a descended hyoid bone this horseshoe shaped bone below the tongue unique in that it is no attached to any other bones in the body allows

particles. At the back of the nasal cavity‚ air gets pulled into the larynx‚ and down to the lungs. The nasal cavity is a sort of entryway for air to come in‚ and it is lined with nasal mucus. The nasal cavity is a large space found in the head‚ and also above and behind the nose. From the nose‚ air passes through a muscular tube in the upper throat called the pharynx‚ which is a passageway for air. The air continues down to the larynx. Another important thing are sinuses‚ which are air pockets located
