Anatomy & Physiology classes get to dissect a pig heart! Pig hearts are a great way to get an idea of human hearts because they are similar in size, structure, & function. Like human hearts, pig hearts consist of 4 chambers (2 atriums 2 ventricles.) | Navarro College

22 reactions | Pig Heart Dissection! This lab focused on the structure and function of the heart. Students used a pig heart to observe the major chambers, valves and blood vessels of the heart. They used this dissection to describe the circulation of blood through the heart to the lungs and to the rest of the body. A pig heart makes an excellent model because it is so similar to a human heart in size, structure, and function. #KMIDS #kmidsfight #internationalschool | KMIDS | Facebook
