Focus Question: What are some parts of the stomach?
Materials: In today's dissection, scapels were used.
Procedure: Today, the stomach was cut at the lesser omentum and a little after the duodenum. I then cut the stomach in half to see the insides.
Data/Observations:
The diaphragm is not in the pictures below because it is above what was cut.
Conclusion: Today, I learned there are many parts to the stomach. Each part is labeled above but I thought the inside was interesting. I didn't think that the rugae would be that noticeably different from the cardia. While I was opening the stomach, I was really scared to find out what was inside. My cat did have a lot of bile which made everything more yellow and smelled pretty gross.

Focus Question: How long are the small intestines?
Materials: In today's dissection, scapels were used.
Procedure: For this dissection, we took the duodenum and then cut the mesentary off the small intestines. Then we cut along the ileocecal sphincter to remove the small intestines.
Data/Observations:
Conclusion: I didn't think our small intestines were that long but they were longer than I thought. We didn't have the longest in the class but that's okay! I thought it was cool how the small intestines were folded into our cat. I also didn't know there was tissue connecting the small intestines together so I thought that was surprising.
