7 maj 2018 · IV. IDENTIFICATION OF ORGANS AND ORGAN SYSTEMS IN THE VENTRAL BODY CAVITY OF FETAL PIG. The figure below can be used as an aid in the identification of ventral body cavity (thoracic and abdominal) organs in the fetal pig. Figure. D4. 1 (b) photograph of opened ventral cavity. [Figure from Marieb’s Human A&P Lab manual, fetal Pig Version 13th ...
The heart and lungs are both located in a region of the pig known as the thoracic cavity, which is separated from the digestive system by the diaphragm, a thin, sheet-like muscle. Between the lungs we find the heart swaddled in the pericardial sac.
The thoracic cavity is protected by the rib cage and contains the lungs and heart. Use the labeled picture to find the following organs: Click for full-size pdf
Lab Overview: The tissues, organs, and organ systems of a fetal pig are similar in both structure and function to those found in humans. You will observe structures of the skin and muscles, as well as the muscular, digestive, excretory, reproductive, circulatory, and respiratory systems.
Thoracic Cavity 1. The thoracic cavity is protected by the rib cage and con-tains the lungs and heart. Use the labeled picture to find the following organs: • Lungs – the lungs have multiple lobes and are found on either side of the heart. • Heart – the heart is encased in a shiny pericardial
This lab provides detailed, step by step instructions for how to dissect the fetal pig thoracic and abdominal cavities, starting with diagrams of the first cuts. High quality, color images are provided
In this activity, you will open the abdominal and thoracic cavity of the fetal pig and identify structures. Remember, that to dissect means to "expose to view" - a careful dissection will make it easier for you to find the organs and structures.
