THE
Heart! Dissection.
THE HEART DISSECTION In Science, we have been learning about the circulatory system. We put our safety goggles, aprons and gloves on and got to work! We discovered the main artery is called the Aorta, where the oxygenated blood travels to the rest of the body. We looked at the external structure and labelled the parts. Then, we made incisions to explore the insides of the heart to look at the different chambers. We noticed the right atrium and ventricle were much smaller, as this carries the deoxygenated blood to the lungs. This was a fantastic experience to physically hold and dissect a real lamb's heart up close. We have learnt so much about the heart and the circulatory system.
