Fetal Pig Dissection Lab Report.

The observations from the Fetal Pig Dissection Lab examine the anatomical similarities and differences. Observing real-life structures and extensive views of tissues, organs, and systems learned in our Human Anatomy and Physiology class. Learning the positions of the Fetal Pig were similar yet located and sized differently. Fetal Pig Dissection is to thoroughly cut or separate tissues, an example of what is done for the Fetal Pig Dissection is “start by inserting a pair of scissors in the angle of the lips on one side of the head and cut posteriorly through the cheek.” As for doing it, I had to expose the structures of the mouth and pharynx. Examining the external nose, hard palate and soft palate along with

Pig Dissection Reflection

Anticipate While Dissecting Fetal Pigs I have performed many dissections in the past including a rat, a frog, worms, and a fetal pig (in fifth grade!). However, because I have not done a dissection in a long time, I won’t be familiar with the tools. There will probably be a learning curve. We haven’t studied anatomy much this year (although I did study all of the organ systems a lot in preparation for the AP test) so I think this dissection will be very helpful in understanding pig, mammalian, and human…

Invertebrates & The Fetal Pig Name:_____________________________Period:___ Dissection Partners’ Names: ______________________________________________ General Overview: We will spend the rest of the semester on our animal dissections. First, you will dissect the earthworm and crayfish to allow you to examine two invertebrate species. Then, your lab group of 4 students will spend 4-5 days identifying parts of the fetal pig and participating in a comparative vertebrate dissection where your group…

Essay about Fetus and Female Sex Hormones

Adam Acosta & Tanner Young Mr. Ed Diaz Adv. Bio Med 20 February 2015 Dissection Lab Manual The female reproductive system is designed to carry out several functions. It produces the female egg cells necessary for reproduction, called the ova or oocytes. The system is designed to transport the ova to the site of fertilization. Conception, the fertilization of an egg by a sperm, normally occurs in the fallopian tubes. The next step for the fertilized egg is to implant into the walls of the uterus,…

Fetal Pig Lab Report

the Internal Organs of a Fetal Pig and the Human Introduction: Since humans and pigs are mammals, there will be similarities in the major internal organs of both. Mammals share many common characteristics such as a diaphragm, a four-chambered heart, similar digestive, respiratory, circulatory, excretory, reproductive systems. The purpose of the dissecting the fetal pig is to better understand that the internal organs are the same or similar to that of a human. H0: Pig and human internal organs…
