Pig fetus dissection


The fetus was very small, smaller than I expected and the parts of the baby pig were even more small than I imagined ! The pig that I chose had no teeth and the mouth was very small. 
 
My first incision was just through the skin to see the muscles before fulling cutting in. 

Once I cut through the muscle I opened up the pigs abdominal cavity and this is what it looked like inside! 
The heart is located at the top of where the cut is in the pig. I then took the heart out and cut it in half to see the inside of the heart. It looks extremely similar to a humans heart just miniature. 


After that I then observed and took out the lungs. I saw the rib cage intercostal muscles, trachea and diaphragm.

After that I observed and took out the liver, esophagus, stomach, gall bladder and intestines. I also took a picture of the umbilical cord ! 

Then I took out the kidneys. 
I wasn't able to get the picture of the pigs brain but I did cut it open and see for myself in person. 
In replacement of that I googled a picture of what it would have looked like. 
I really enjoyed doing this lab and seeing how everything looks and I was very satisfied with how everything we were learning about in class was brought to life  and we were all able to see things in real life instead if pictures or diagrams!

Grouse grind post

I was not able to attend the grouse grind because I was really sick that day and stayed back to work. I would love to experience doing the grouse grind and seeing how my body reacts and works with the intensity of the hike. I think that I would have a hard time going up because my endurance is not very good but I would really like to test my self and go again few months later to see how much more I could improve.

Interesting post on the urinary system!

Urinary Tract Infection: Causes, Symptoms & Treatment

I chose to do my question/interesting post on Urinary track infections also known as a UTI.
Getting a UTI is a very common thing for young women starting ages 12 and older. 
Women are more likely than men to get a UTI. One reason for this is that women have a shorter urethra than men do, and it is closer to the anus. Sexual activity also increases a woman's risk of UTI.A urinary tract infection is caused simply by bacteria that get inside your urinary tract. Most bacteria that enter your urinary tract are expelled when you pee. If the 


bacteria stay's in your urinary tract, you may get an infection. Your urinary tract includes  

your kidneys, 
ureters, bladder, and urethra. Urine is made in your kidneys, and it flows from the ureters

to the bladder. Urine leaves the bladder through the urethra. Some people get UTI's 
frequently others

may get it once or twice. 


The signs and symptoms of a UTI

  • A strong and frequent urge to urinate often, even after you've just emptied your bladder
  • Pain or burning while urinating
  • Cloudy or bloody urine
  • Pain in the lower abdomen or back (pelvic pain for women, rectal pain for men)

Risk factors

  • Women are more likely than men to get a UTI. One reason for this is that women have a shorter urethra than men do, and it is closer to the anus. Sexual activity also increases a woman's risk of UTI. More risk factors are the drop in estrogen levels, blockages of the urinary tract, such as those caused by a kidney stones and people with an impaired immune system such as diabetes.

Treatment

Usually, a urinary track infection is treated with antibiotics to prevent it from spreading to the kidneys.  Patients should finish their prescribed antibiotics, even if symptoms disappear, because not finishing a course of antibiotics may allow the infection to return. Symptoms of a bladder infection usually go away within one to two days after starting antibiotics.
