Pig Dissection

In this dissection, we mainly looked at three systems: the nervous system, the endocrine system and the urinary system.

First day: dissection of the lower body

We examined the pig's gender first. We believed it was a male, which was proved by the two testes we found.
Then we isolated the liver.

The stomach & intestine
We opened the stomach.

The pancreas
The kidneys

Second day: dissection of the upper body

The first organ we isolated were the lungs

The heart

The brain was extremely soft. Unfortunately we didn't isolate the brain stem.

The eye ball and lens
