Dissection of the Respiratory System of the Fetal Pig Inferior to the Larynx Dissection is an art. We must carefully and accurately dissect the pig so we can identify all important parts. We must use caution when carrying and cleaning sharp dissection tools. Dissection must help us to get to figure out specific parts of the organ that we need. In general‚ dissection in biology lab will help us to see of how all the systems get together in an entire organism. We will get to see how

carbon dioxide diffuses f from tissue cells to blood Respiratory organs: The organs of the respiratory tract can be divided into two groups-the upper respiratory tract (nose‚ nasal cavity‚ sinuses‚ and pharynx) and the lower respiratory tract (larynx‚ trachea‚ bronchial tree‚ and lungs). Upper respiratory tract: Nose: The nose provides an entrance for air and has many internal hairs? for preventing large air particles from entering the nasal cavity. Nasal cavity: The nasal cavity

The larynx‚ more commonly known as the voice box or the Adam’s apple‚ is crucial in the production and differentiation of speech sounds. The larynx is located at exactly the point where the throat divides between the trachea (the windpipe)‚ which leads to the lungs‚ and the esophagus (the tube that carries food or drink to the stomach). Over the larynx is a flap called the epiglottis that closes off the trachea when we swallow

together. The goal of breathing is to deliver oxygen to the body and take away carbon dioxide. The respiratory system organs all work together‚ like a engine in a car‚ they all have a important role. Some of the organs are the lungs‚ the nose‚ the larynx‚ trachea‚ bronchi‚ and diaphragm. The lungs are the main organs in the respiratory system. Oxygen is taken in through the lungs‚ either through your mouth or nose. When you exhale‚ carbon dioxide is released. The red blood cells play are very

Immune System The immune system is the body’s defense against infectious organisms and other invaders. Through a series of steps called the immune response‚ the immune system attacks organisms and substances that invade body systems and cause disease The main way that your skin protects you against disease is through acting much as armor does to knight. The skin creates an impermeable layer that separates your body’s internals from the disease causing bacteria and viruses outside of you. Of course

Jessica Niewohner PHIL 160‚ Section AA Professor Feintzeig Summary of Mivart’s ‘Genesis of Species’ In George Mivart’s ‘Genesis of Species’‚ Mivart thoroughly reviews Darwin’s theory of natural selection. Mivart concludes that Darwin’s theory of natural selection is flawed because it cannot account for all of the mechanics of inheritance‚ specifically the initial developments of useful characteristics. He disputes that natural selection can account for the passing of negative or unnecessary
