1- Incisions in your Explain the purpose of the pig as illustrated in figure 4.
In the figure fourth is the fetal pig incisions. The picture show many different part in the pig that we need to know to really understand what we going to do before starting doing our experiment .We need to know each part where there are and their functions so when we start open our pigs that we do not mess it at all.
2-How are the two sexes distinguished by external anatomy?
The two sexes distinguished by external anatomy by looking the male and the female. The female have a single urogenital opening just ventral to the anus. A prominent genital papilla project from the urogenital opening. But the male have a scrotum sac like swelling containing the testes and located ventral to the anus. The male urogenital opening is faintly visible just posterior to the umbilicus .
3- What structure separates the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity in figure 5?
The diaphragm separates the thoracic cavity and the abdominal cavity .
4 What structure are located in the thoracic cavity? What structures are located in the abdominal cavity?
Structure are located in the thoracic cavity are lungs and heart. Structure are located in the abdominal cavity are stomach, gallbladder, liver, kidneys, large intestine, pancreas, spleen, and small intestine.
5 List the digestive system organs in order, starting with the mouth.
Mouth, esophagus, stomach , duodenum, small intestine, large intestine, rectum, and anus
6 What functions are performed by the liver?
The liver makes the bile and then sends it into the gall bladder to the pumped into the small intestine.
7 What blood vessels have direct connections to the heart? Aorta, vena cavae, pulmonary vein and artery.
8 Why is the fetal pig used to teach about vertebrate and mammalian anatomy?
We used the fetal pig to teach about vertebrate and mammalian anatomy because their organism are similar and their circulation system

    Before even starting the dissection, we had to examine the outer portion of the pig. We started our observations around the head, looking at the mouth, ears, eyes, and snout. Then we started the actual dissection by cutting a vertical line along the long axis of the body, a horizontal line immediately posterior to the front legs and anterior to the hind legs. You had to be careful when using the scalpel so as not to piece any underlying organs. We flapped the skin back and pinned it to the dissection pan and cut through the ribs to reveal the organs underneath. We looked thoroughly at the oral cavity, respiratory system, and digestive system.…

    This report represents an in depth biological study of the sus scrofa and its internal organs located in the ventral body cavity. The purpose of this lab is to compare and contrast the functions of organ systems of humans and fetal pigs, primarily those contained within the ventral body cavity, which includes both thoracic and abdominal cavities. Also, to implement new skills such as dissection and the use of a scalpel as well as other related tools and to attain the ability to locate the organs of the mammalian system and compare their location to that of human organs. Through the process of sus scrofa dissection, insights have been made into the comparison of biological structures between mammals-- particularly fetal pigs, and humans through study of the ventral cavity and the organs lying within. The aforementioned dissection, which was performed with the use of specialized tools such as the scalpel, has yielded fruitful results leading to a greater understanding of the functions of organ systems in other life forms; including the fetal pig. Due to the four-legged nature of the fetal pig, there have been several similarities and differences regarding the human race and the fetal pig. Firstly, the pig possesses a tail whereas humans do not. The second differences observed were the large distinctions in facial structure. The fetal pig, perhaps due to its linear body shape, possessed a thinner, more streamlined facial structure with large, upright ears, and an extended snout. Internally, the fetal pig and the human have been observed to have similar internal organ systems, with size as the major difference between the two. With this knowledge in mind, a better understanding of the differences and similarities between the biological structures of the human race and the animal kingdom has been attained for possible use in methods that could prove beneficial to both. Due to the…

    Many scientists are experts when it comes to the placement of the organs in the human and animal body. Scientists can point anywhere and name the organ closest to it, but how do the scientists know exactly where each organ is? How do the scientists know the number of organs that are in your body? How do they know all this? Well, scientists know all about the anatomy of humans and animals because of a procedure called dissection. Dissection is when people cut open and analyze the structures and relations inside. In this situation a fetal pig…
