Anatomy and Physiology
Hello and welcome to Anatomy and Physiology!
We are lucky enough to be able to complete dissections throughout the school year. We will complete a dissection on frogs, fetal pigs, and various sheep specimens. Here are the basic lab and safety rules for the classroom:
1. Act responsibly in the science classroom / lab. Never fool around in lab.
2. Follow all written and verbal instructions carefully. Ask your teacher if you do not understand.
3. Never work alone. Your teacher must be present during labs.
4. Do not touch equipment or chemicals in the lab until your teacher gives instructions.
