The cat skeletal muscle dissection has been my favorite so far this year. Leading up to this dissection, we covered something's in class that helped me with the dissection. One of the things we covered in class were the skeletal system. Knowing where the clavicle was helped me know where the clavobrachialis was. You knew as soon as you walked in the door if we were working on our cats, because there is this strong unique smell that fills the room. Once you get over the smell, its not that bad. Mrs. Lafertty would tell us what the goal was for the day, and then we would head to the lab and suit up with our goggles, aprons, and gloves. We would find our cat in the 3rd period box, take it to the sink and let the juice run out. Tools we used for the dissection were probes, scissors,
Mrs. Lafertty challenged us again with a big oral test, but this time instead of 80 bones, it was 50 skeletal muscles. We had about a week to take the oral test. Monday, December 14, is the last day to take it. I didn't want to have to worry about taking that test over the weekend. I was kinda ready to take it but I wanted to run over it a few times just to be sure. I studied all fourth period going over and over it with Karla luna. I ended up taking it when Mrs. Lafferty came back in the class, I aced it! I made a 100, and I was so relieved!
When we come back from Christmas break we will be cracking open the cats again to go over arteries and nerves. I cant wait, but then agan I can, I need a break.
