  • Following the dissection directions as laid out on pp. 349, 351, take your time to find the gastrointestinal, cardiovascular, and respiratory organs listed above. Your instructor may direct to save some of those objectives for next week, depending on lab progress. Next week, we will finish the fetal pig with careful attention to urogenital and nervous system organs. Your instructor may use questions from the lab manual as the basis for quiz questions. The fetal pig offers a good overview of the mammalian body plan--try to explore as much as you can while you dissect! Your notes and drawings:
