Abstract

This lab is designed to provide students with detailed dissection instructions of the fetal pig, including the digestive, respiratory, cardiac, urinary, and reproductive systems. Color pictures are provided for each step to help students ensure that they are removing the correct material and making the correct cuts. Information is provided throughout the lab about the function of each organ students observe. This lab may be used for majors, and can also be adapted for use in a non-majors, general education course
