This Week in Science


In this picture we're holding "Steve's"( our frog ) fat bodies open & us removing his liver. I chose this picture to show some things we took out from him.

This shows "Steve's" testis being removed. I chose this picture because it shows some of the procedures we took to remove his insides.


This is "Steve's" mouth open, and his shrunken tongue, I chose this picture because it gives a clear view of what its mouth looks like open, but also what the frogs tongue looks like when the frog has died.
This shows "Steve's" insides, his stomach, liver, and small intestines. I chose this picture because it shows "Steve's" insides clearly
This is mostly everything we took out of "Steve" his lounges, large intestines, testis, stomach etc. I chose this picture because this was the everything our frogs body.





This week in science we dissected a frog and identify the parts of their body. We took out the organs and saw which one connected to the other for example the stomach and the liver are together. We also noticed that the frogs tongue had shrunken.


We learned ho w to tell wether or not the frog is a female or male, we also learned how frogs mate and reproduce.  We learned identify the organ names and why certain parts are located where, also how they work with other organ.

First Impressions

Frogs have never interested me so basically I have no interest in them. I guess the anatomy of a frog is very similar to a humans but I doubt their hearts and brains are the same, I imagine the frogs stomach intestines are the same as ours. I have never had any experiences with frogs but I've heard some are poisonous, I think most live in the carribean areas like Costa Rica. Blogs aren't really something I'm all about I have never used one but I look forward to it.
