This week in Science #9

Paragraph 1: What I DID
This week in science what we did was get into groups and we chose 2 animals to dissect out of 4. There was a skate, a frog, a mouse & a perch. I got a frog and a mouse and 2 people in my group did a mouse and the other 2 did a frog. First we took pictures of the frog ( the ventral, dorsal, and side view ) then we examined it. After that i drew the ventral and the dorsal part of the frog. The next day we got all of our supplies to begin to dissect the animal. We first took off all the skin  then took the scissors and cut  it down the middle so we could see all the inside intestines. Me and my partner then found the heart lungs and all the inside fat.

Paragraph 2: What I LEARNED
This week in science I learned all about frogs and what was inside them. I learned all about the different body parts. I also learned what these words mean pharnyx, anus, cloaca, spleen and a few more. Some more things i learned was that it's really easy and cool to dissect a frog. It's different but easy to find all the body parts you ned to because they're all together.

Paragraph 3: Structures and Functions - In this extra paragraph, we want you to compare and contrast the forms and functions of yours and your table mates' organisms.
The mouse and the frog are 2 different animals. The mouse had fur and it really small. The frog is really big and slimy. Both the mouse and the frog was boys and you saw its boy parts in the body. The lungs of the frog was like little worms and they was all stuck together. The lungs of the mouse was really small and a tan color. The frogs lungs was way bigger than mouses lungs.

What two organisms were dissected at your table.
  A Frog and A Mouse
List at least 3 structures that appeared similar on your pair of organisms.
  The heart, Lungs, body Fat
List  1 structure that has the same function on both organisms but appears very different.
  The whole body
