Dissections
For our dissection, I didn’t do the dissection but instead did a human anatomy website that lets you look at all the human body parts and lists off muscles, I didn’t have pictures of it because I was working with my partner Brian because my tablet wasn’t pulling it up. I have learned many parts of the body and their many functions, for example the kidney is an organ that helps with digestion like processing the liquids you drink for instance. This project was quite easy for me seeing as I love anatomy and I love getting to know how the body works. This could also help me in the future becoming a nurse to get the job and have a job I would love. I not only love just the organs and learning about them but also the bones, the spinal cord personally is my favorite of them. I know that this information about the human body will be extremely useful for me in the future and I know I will be prepared to be a nurse and I am so happy I got to learn about the human body because it’s a subject that really intrigued me.
During the dissection many people where working with cats and other animals and dissecting them, but I personally can’t handle cutting open an animal so I instead used a virtual human dissection website so that I didn’t have to do the dissection while all at the same time I could still be learning about our topic. I think that the virtual dissections are a good idea because not all people can handle dissections not only because of a weak stomach but for religion and other purposes. This really benefits the people that can’t do that kind of work and still gives them education on the human body Incase they want to become a nurse or surgeon and although they didn’t do dissections, some people can tolerate dissecting another human before an animal.
I am very glad i got to do this project because I got to learn a lot from it and I will be sing this knowledge and take it and use it for my future.
