Of Dissecting Frogs


Before we started even figured how do we open up the frog, we worried about accidentally cutting on the frogs vein, which other people did and the end was a very messy procedure, we started separating the frogs skin which is shown in the clip and then opening the muscles and other organs up, we started with the stomach, bill then the other parts, it was really gross, even some student had "graffiti" on their shirt as an effect on the capillaries that had been punctured and blood started spraying out like mad!!
Worst of all are another group of students which dissected every thing, including the eyes, legs, arms, muscles etc. EEwwwww. But the frog was unconscious, I guess the chloroform was a bit too much for the small little frog. And because our school was a government school, the dissecting tools were blunt and worn out, making the process alot harder for us.





Lucky, our frog was dissected nice and properly. Pictures will be posted later.
