I'd like to remind all my biology students that we'll be doing dissections tomorrow, so please arrive on time and ready to begin. Make sure you have your lab report forms with you, and wear something you wouldn't mind getting dirty, just in case.

If you don't want to participate due to ethical reasons, you should have contacted me already; but I'll take any last-minute requests I get now into consideration. Be advised that the research paper you'll have to do in lieu of the assignment is not an easy break. If all you're looking for is a shortcut, you're better off using a scalpel to get there.

Anatomy and Life Drawing, we'll be looking at the musculature of the head and neck in both classes. Don't forget your texts.

LAB REPORT: FROG DISSECTION

The purpose of this lab is to learn about the anatomy of the bullfrog [Rana catesbeiana] by dissecting a specimen, and examining both the structure of individual organs and the ways in which they work together as organ systems.

( Non-IC cut for TL;DR and for the squeamish :3 )

Next year I get to do a fetal pig, which is gonna be awesome! But that’s all. Someone told me they used to dissect cats too but they stopped because one time the cat they were gonna dissect turned out to be pregnant, and when they cut it open all the kittens fell out and most of the kids threw up. Seriously!


|[ooc: He’s older than he looks in the userpics, I just don’t feel up to figuring out someone else to use as a PB because I am lame. He's on the younger end of the highschool spectrum, tho~ Virtual Frog Dissection ftw. If only I could find my actual old lab reports... >_> Some of this is accurate but probably not all of it... ^^ ok I am prolly overthinking this. sob. sorry.]|
