Okay, if you cheated and checked my facebook already than you can't guess, but if not then.....I DISSECTED again!! The list continues! Yesterday in Medical Anatomy and Physiology, we dissected A PIG'S HEART. And today, in my CTEC class, my teacher surprised us by getting to dissect A COW'S HEART plus see the LUNGS INFLATE!!! Okay, I am nerding out! I love this stuff it is so cool to me! Let me just say that the cow's heart was sooooo much bigger than the pig's heart! I could fit my fist in the right atrium! We played hide and seek with our fingers sticking them up random tubes and valves to see where they went!
Did you know that heartstrings are real? I didn't. They open and close valves in the hear and they are SUPER STRONG! I could hold up the entire heart with this tiny little string!
Also did you know that a whale's heart is as big as a slug bug CAR??! This is crazy stuff people!
So here is the list of all of my dissections since 7th grade:
1. An owl's pellet (7th grade)
2. A fetal pig (10th grade)
3. A cow's eyeball (12th grade)
4. A sheep's brain (12th grade)
5. A pig's heart (12th grade)
6. A cow's heart (12th grade)
