The objectives of this dissection was to examine the digestive system, the shape and location of the organs. Another objective of the rat dissection was to know the function of the organs in the respiratory system. For our last objective, for the circulatory system we had to identify the blood vessels and state their function. Rat dissections are done in this course because students get to see, touch and examine the organs in the body. Seeing these organs in person instead of just off a piece of paper helps students get a better understanding. They also get to see how these systems work, including their own body.
