The Integumentary System Objective: Identify the skin structures on a model and name the layers of the skin. Also observe the degree of burns on a model. Materials: One skin structure 3-dimensional model One degrees of burn model Procedure: The model was observed for identification of the skin layers and its related structures. The second model was observed for the degrees of burn. Results: The layers of the human skin and the degrees of burn. Observation: The main purpose of…

Through the dissection of the rat, my lab partner and I were able to gain a better understanding of the animal’s anatomy by viewing it’s external organs, as well, after careful incisions, viewing the inside of the rat’s anatomy.
