Pig Dissection Day 2
What parts of the digestive system were you able to identify today? Describe each generally.
We were able to identify the liver lobes the gall bladder the intestines the pancreas and the muscle inside the skin that i forget what it is called. Devin,
When I cut open Miss. Piggy I saw the liver, the small intestine, the large intestine, the pancreas, the gal bladder, the spleen, and part of the stomach. R.I.P Miss. Piggy. ~jovin :)
Today, I could identify the liver, small/large intestines, gall bladder, peritoneal membrane, stomach (harder to find though), spleen, pancreas (also hard to find), and the kidneys. The liver was across the chest and looked/felt floppy. The Small Intestine was very long and scrunched in a ball next to the large intestine. The Large Intestine was next to the small intestine and was very short. The gall bladder looked light brownish and very small on the back of the liver. The Peritoneal Membrane felt slimy and protected the inside of the pig. The stomach was very hard to find and was kind of gross. It was a half-full, tiny balloon. The Spleen was very easy to find and looked like a flat balloon. The Pancreas was white/light brown and looked like a bunch of glued together grain pieces. Last but not least, Tanner and I found the Kidneys. They were under the large/small intestines and looked as if they were imbedded into the back of the pig. This dissection was cool and I can't wait for tomorrows dissection! -Ashley
Gull Bladder: holds bile Small/Large Intestine: filters bile for removal Liver: detoxes and digests Stomach: digests food Pancreas: digest food (yes more digesting) Spleen: breaks down used blood cells -Chris
Small Intestine: red, small, long/ transport the food Large Intestine: big, green/ gets rid of food Stomach: flabby, underneath the liver/ digests the food Liver: soft, red/ detoxes Gal Bladder: flimsy, holds bile
We found the gall bladder, both of the intestines, the liver, the stomach, the pancreas, and the spleen. The stomach stores food. The small intestine responsible for most chemical digestion and absorption of nutrients. The large intestines receives the liquid waste products of digestion, reabsorbs water and minerals, and forms and stores feces for defecation. The spleen produces, stores, and eliminates blood cells. The liver filters out poisons and drugs out of the blood stream. The gall bladder stores bile and releases it as needed into the small intestine. The pancreas produces the hormones that regulate blood sugar, produces enzymes that break down carbohydrates, proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids.
Stomach: digests food, soft and smooth, squishy Spleen: flat, thin, next to the large intestines Liver: Red, across the chest in the pectoral region Small/Large intestines: extremely long Pancrease: Round, penny sized Gal bladder: stores bile, round
Small/large intestine:flexible Liver: Red at chest Stomach:Squishy, you can poop it but we can't yet Panchreas: Spleen:floppy, Smooth Gull Bladder: ~maddie
Small intestine/Large intestine- Prepares food for "exiting"( looks like rolled up cordage) Stomach- digest food (large round shape) Liver- Detoxes/digests( large brown/red thing) Pancreas- digest food( verysquishy) Spleen- Breaks down blood cells Kidney- (on the sides of the pig) Gull Bladder- hold bile
Small intestine- digests food and nutrients Large intestine- absorbs water and vitamins to turn into feces Stomach- enhances digestion; churning food, ect. Liver- metobalic functions such as converting nutrients into usable substances, and stores and supplies cells Pancreas- processes hormones; insulin and glucagon Spleen- immune system and fights off infection and breaks down expired red blood cells Kidney- remove metabolic waste Gull Bladder- holds bile and releases it to aid the digestive process ~Nicole
I saw the guts and stomach of my pig, they were very red. Mine also had a lot of juice in it.

I could clearly see the large and small intestines, the liver, pancreas, spleen, stomach, and gall bladder. It all smelled very bad.
