The injury was one thing but tears rolled down my cheeks after the doctor stated that I could not dive for several weeks. Competitive diving is a sport that often begins with failure but can lead to success. A new dive is challenging

personal. So many scuba divers all over the world share a passion to scuba dive. Scuba diving has been a worldwide endeavor for centuries (1).

In the 1800’s English inventors came up with more re-breathing devices (1). Over time dive suits that weighed a lot were invented along with tubes and air tanks.

that we should see the skeletal and organ structures that we learned about in class. Because pigs are also mammals‚ their structure is very similar to our own. By doing the dissection‚ we were able to physically see and touch the anatomy of the mammalian body rather seeing it solely in text form. This gives us a better idea of how the structures are intertwined to form the body as a whole. Methods Before even starting the dissection‚ we had to examine the outer portion of the pig. We started
