  • Following the dissection directions as laid out on pp. 354 366, 367, 368, and 369, take your time to find the genitourinary and neural organs/structures listed above. You will need to examine both male and female pigs. Your instructor may direct to ignore some of those objectives, given the progress of dissection in your particular laboratory. In addition, 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 in our final dissection of the semester! Your notes and drawings:
