Health Topic - Rat Dissection Lesson


On Thursday afternoon as part of our studies on the human body and its systems we looked at the anatomy of rats through the dissection of them. The rat has a very similar internal organ layout to that of humans. The rat dissection was an interesting lesson and a great chance for everyone to see the real life example of the internal organs we have been studying and how they all work together to make a body function. We dissected and examined two rats witht he assistance and knowledge of Jono who works in Room 14 - he has a Degree in Anatomy so was able tclearly explain all that we were seeing during the session - Thanks Jono!
