Frog Dissection



In class we dissected frogs. This process helped us learn a lot about fogs and how they work. Three things I learned about the frog from this dissection are:




  • The liver is the largest organ in the body

  • The gallbladder looks like a little green sack

  • If you cut the stomach open some times you can find food inside it


Many people dissect frogs and they all find out different things about them. Two interesting fact I found online are:

  • the frogs tongue attaches on the front and flicks out to curl around the pray
  • the frog has teeth

My opinion about the dissection of the frog is that it was a good thing to do. This was a good hands of way to learn about the frogs inside and how it works.
