Title

Dissection of frogs and separation of organs

Introduction
Introduction:

Frog dissection is one of the fundamental laboratory practices in biology done on vertebrates to
provide hands-on experience for students. This report gives an knowledge of the procedure and
observations made during the dissection of a preserved specimen of a frog. The main idea is to
increase the understanding about the anatomy and physiology of amphibians and develop
practical skills in identifying tissues and organs.

The anatomy and importance of the skin, muscles, bones, and major organs- heart, lungs and
digestive system will be described. In addition, the anatomical features of the frog and their
functional significance along with significant notes and observations made during dissection will
be discussed in the report.

This report and experience by the students will appreciate better the complexity and
organization that one finds in the anatomy of a frog by dissecting and filling out this lab report.
This process can act as a model to understand the anatomy of any other vertebrate, including
human beings.

Methodology

1. Materials Required

Preserved frog specimen.

Dissection tray.

Dissection kit, including:

Scalpel
Scissors
Forceps
Needle probe
Gloves
Paper towels

2. Preparation

1. Setting Up the Workspace


The dissection Foam was clean and in a good condition

All tools were sterilized and arranged for easy access.

Personal protective equipment (gloves, , and goggles) was worn to ensure safety.

2. Handling the Specimen

The frog was placed ventral side up on the dissection tray, with pins used to secure its limbs to
the tray.

3. Dissection Procedure

1. External Examination

Observed and identified external features of the frog, such as the mouth, nostrils, eyes,
tympanic membrane, and limbs.

Measured the length of the frog using a ruler and recorded observations.

2. Initial Incision

Using scissors, an incision was made along the midline of the ventral side, starting from the
lower abdomen to the throat. Care was taken not to cut too deeply to avoid damaging internal
organs.

3. Exposing the Internal Organs

Additional incisions were made laterally from the midline to create flaps of skin and muscle
tissue. These flaps were pinned back to expose the abdominal cavity.

Removal of Organs

We remove the heart,lever,lungs,and so many more and we remove the heart while it was a live

4. Cleanup and Disposal

1. All dissected tissues and the specimen must be disposed of according to our Teacher

2. Dissection tools were cleaned, sterilized, and returned to their storage case.

3. The workspace was disinfected, and gloves were discarded in the appropriate waste bin.

5. Safety Considerations
Gloves that we worn at all times to prevent exposure to preservatives.

The scalpel and scissors were handled with care to avoid injury.

The specimen was handled respectfully and disposed of in compliance with ethical guidelines
