For Science 8, we had to dissect a cow's eye.
The pupil was huge, and the vitreous humor(jelly-like substance) came out.
What's even weirder?
The retina, the inner layer (back) at the eyeball was a neat-to-look @ blue.
...Discuss:dork:
Um...
/me scratches dick...
 
I don't really want discuss you scratching your dick.

edit: oh no you didn't just move around words to make my joke not work!
 
I remember when we did that in science class. Because our science teacher has a sense of humor he played quite a funny trick.

Unknown to us, he made a fake eyeball out of food (looked exactly real), can't remember what he said it was made with unfortunately.

Anyway, he presented this tray of eyeballs to us, explaining that we were to use the scalpals (sp?) to disect them looking for various bits etc. Once he'd explained all that he commented that they have a very destinctive taste and with that he popped on in his mouth (the fake one of course). The looks of all the girls faces was truely excellent. Several rushed to the toliets....


With a different science teacher it would have been much less interesting, he used to do loads of things like that in his classes.
 
We had to dissect pig fetuses for weeks, after the first 2 weeks they didnt do so well.
Smelt like Tredoslop.
 
dissection is cool. only thing i've dissected are a woman's privates with my probes and a pigs heart with some scalpels etc.

pigs hearts are tough little shits, they've got about an inch worth of pure fat around their heart and you spend ages *carving* through the flesh. and all the time it's squelching and bleeding and all other disgusting stuff. mmmm tasty.
 
Anything I've ever seen dissected was dissected by our science teacher.

He was cool. Sometimes he let us watch "The Simpsons", as he said that we could learn from it.:E

Lucky bastard:dozey:
My Humanities teacher is kind of like that.
He would sometimes turn on the news.
He never gets mad(barely)
You forget ur h/w-he would make light of the situation and make a joke.
He's also a funny guy.

I had to do that last year in biology. I was in a group with two guys, and well, let's just say they were really lazy. So basically we had the little pig fetus on the tray in front of us and one guy would say, "Dude, you cut it" and the other guy would be like "No way, I'm not gonna cut it, you do it." Well after listening to their idiocy for a few minutes I was thinking "Shut up and cut it you idiots!" (but of course didn't say it)... so then I said "OK, give me the knife" and I took it and had to slice up that poor pig. So basically I started slicing through the skin and finally those two guys (and they were older than me too) got over their squirminess or laziness or whatever, and kinda helped me skin it... I followed the diagram and cut and they kind of pulled it back.... so I could cut some more. And then at the end of class we wrapped it back up "in its own juices" and stuck it back in the plastic bag for the next day.

ermm, why, do you think you go to the same school or something, lol.

I go to a public school around Houston. I think the fetal pig dissection is pretty standard though, so there's probably a bunch of schools that do it. I was a sophomore in that class; the two guys in my groups were seniors-- I just wonder if they were lazy since it was end of senior year for them, or if they really were grossed out by the pig.

TASTES LIKE CHICKEN!!1
 
The only thing I've dissected was a sheep-heart, which was pretty interesting. Everyone's hands smelt like dead-sheep for the rest of the day though, even though we wore gloves. :angry: Not good for dinner! :x

We watched the teacher dissect sheep-lungs too. *shudders* Sheep mucus... ugh
 
I've also done a squid dissection... well actually half of a squid dissection since we ran out of time, lol. And I was working with those same guys that didn't do anything. And earthworm dissections, and looking at preserved grasshoppers and crayfish, and clams, and old decaying starfish that my teacher found in the closet. Except I've done them all twice for pre-ap bio and then ap bio... I miss bio labs; chem labs are so boring.
Has anybody ever done the fruit fly lab, where you look for recessive and sex-linked traits and you dump out some little flies and put 'em to sleep and look at 'em under the microscope. I saw a few of them with, umm, eggs coming out. Sometimes some of them escape.... and that's when I realized why there were always these annoying little bugs flying around in biology class. Ahh, nice bio stories, haha.
 
I dissected a bunch of stuff in 8-9th grade I think. We had to choose between a few special topics, such as science (biology/physics/whatever), math, gymnastics and etc... I picked biology both years :)
First time it was just to swing it. Then I found out that 90% of the lessons was in a nice comfortable room with a couch, an huge aquarium and a bunch of books, where we was like 5 people doing absolutely NOTHING. The second year was obvious :p
The rest was experiments, dissections, trips to forrest, feeding the fishes, slacking, more slacking and sometime sleeping or simply sit there and figure out what to do next...

wow that sounds very nice indeed.
I have very few experiments but a lot to study. Aorta, Vena cava, pulmonary arteries, etc.

btw we just finished the reproduction part :)
 
What does everyone here of you that have dissected something think of it?


I think that i will get to dissect something next year...


*brings scalpel to school*
 
Messy (the eyeball content, hehe), disgusting, very smelly (a classroom full of gutted fish? dont even think about it :x), and utterly pointless in the end as you just want to forget about it :)
 
Bodies smell of formaldahyde... it's not nice...

And i had to cut a dead mans cock right down the centre, like a bannana split.
 
I tear the limbs off several different animals every week, cut them up and eat them.


I remember when we made fossils out of fish and that was fun. The teacher brought in loads of fish, more than we could possibly need...Big mistake. At first things went ok, people were just messing around with plaster of paris and stuff, but then someone put a fish on another persons head, that then developed, with the victim slapping (with a fish) someone they thought had put the fish on them. Then, another guy threw a fish...anyway, needless to say it grew into a full blown fish fight. Honestly the place stunk for a week, even after several washes.
