-Heart Dissection

Heart Dissection

Yesterday we dissected hearts. As we were dissecting we were identifying different parts. Some of the parts are extremely important because without them it would not pump blood around our body's.

METHOD

1. Identify the right and left sides of the heart. 

If you look closely and on one side you will see a diagonal line of blood vessels that divide the heart. The half that includes all of the apex of the heart is the left side. By squeezing each half of the heart. The left half will feel much firmer and more muscular than the right side. (The left side of the heart is stronger because it has to pump blood to the whole body. The right side only pumps blood to the lungs.)

To conclude I didn't enjoy the dissection but I did enjoy learning the parts of it. I didn't like the fact that a sheep has either been put down our passed away and then had there heart taken out.
