Rat Dissection - 9/10/2012

For the second lab in class we were to dissect a rat and identify the body parts such as the thoracic organs and abdominal organs. We also saw the difference in a male and female rat.



The comparison with the rat body vs the human body



This is a male rat, you can see its testis.


Getting our rat ready to be tight down with twine!
We had a female rat and luckily wasn't pregnant!


All open! This is AFTER we rinse the rat because we had cut to deep and made a hole in the small intestine and we had fetus everywhere!


We removed the ribs!
