Pig Dissection
In class this week we worked on dissecting an unborn big. We worked in our table groups to dissect the pig throughout two class periods. My understanding of the purpose of this lab was to help us understand the anatomy of an animal and work hands on to see the different parts of their body. The vodcasts we watched to prepare us for the dissection were an essential part of understanding their body but with this hands on lab it really boosted our understanding of the concepts we learned.
This dissection related to our unit which was physiology. My favorite part of this unit was looking at all of their organs and opening the pig's heart. It was a great privilege to be able to look closely at the animals organs because it is a great way of learning about their body hands on. I think that this dissection was a valuable experience for everyone because they work hands on with the animal.
