Heart Experiement

The Heart. Don’t think it’s a human heart but a sheep heart. It’s just the same as in human heart. The Experiment in the laboratory is to dissect a sheep heart and here we are taking pictures of the dissected heart.

The ventricles of the sheep heart is obviously visible. You can see the left and right ventricle, the aorta, the inter-ventricular septum muscle, the myocardium, and pulmonary trunk.

It’s the posterior half of the sheep heart.

This is the other half of the heart. There is the auricle, the tricuspid valve, the cordenae tendenae, trabeculae carneae, the papillary muscle, the myocardium, and the inter-atrial septum.

This is the anterior half of the heart.

The dissectors. Michelle, me, and Coney.

After cutting the heart we try to locate our pulse and listen to each others heart beat. We even tried locating the atrial systole and the ventricular systole. its called auscultation- listening to something inside the body.

I guess even we are having fun in our laboratory experiment we knew something when the get done with everything.
