Pig dissection Relate and Review

In this Lab we did a dissection on a fetal pig. THe essential question in this Lab to me was, What are the different organs of the pig and what are the functions? To me it was a very interesting lab that had everybody in mixed feeling. In my situation, the first day I was definitely a one glove person for about half the class and then I started really getting into it nd making the cutting of the skin and muscle. When I was the one gloved person, every time I touched the pig I would cringe and be disgusted. By the second day I was taking charge doing must of the dirty work. Starting to do the vodcast, I was the pointer and I would point to all the different sections and organs while Kole was the person explaining all the organs

and their functions. My favorite part about this lab is when we did the disection of the pig cutting it open finding new things and what the organs actually look like close up and in poerson. This Lab gave a new perspective on life and how our body works. It showed me what our heart looks like and the four different chambers, and the large intestine compared tot eh small intestine. I feel like the most disgusting part was when we started cutting open the pig and then all of the sudden blood started gushing out of the body. Also I found it disturbing when on the second day we got our pig and the pig was drowning in this liquid of some sort. But overall it was a great lab that was very eye opening and made me learn a lot. This relates to me because I have a lot of the same organs as pigs do. And now if I ever get surgery in the stomach area I know what they are doing an what is around my stomach.
