Recommended: Explain importance of education

I value an education, it is a vital tool to succeed and survived in very competitive world. I strongly believed that learning and knowledge are highly prized in all societies. In the process of enriching myself I have experience many proud moments. One of them is pig’s brain dissection in my AP Biology Lab. I am always curious to know and see complex brain’s anatomical internal structure. The day I performed the dissection I was thrilled as it was not only satisfying my hunger of learning, but also a first step toward my career goal. Today, again I got chance to dissect a strawberry. The entire process to separate strand of DNA was very interesting and observing DNA was the most fascinating work for me. I still remember my 9th

  • Fetal Pig Dissection Essay

    996 Words  | 2 Pages

    In Labs 22 through 26, my lab partner and I were assigned a fetal pig to perform a dissection on in order to understand anatomy, the study of an organism’s structure1, and physiology, the study of the functions and activities of a living organism2. Throughout these labs, we studied the structure of the fetal pig and performed experiments to understand four system processes: digestion, cardiovascular, respiratory, and excretory. Dissecting an organism, physically moving and seeing the different portions of the organism, especially of a fetal pig, is very important. This helps in the understanding of the skeletal structure and what series of physical and chemical processes the mammalian species body performs in order to survive.

    The earliest human dissections date back to ancient Egypt and Greece where records of Anatomy were hand drawn and physiology was largely theorized. I find it fascinating that modern imaging technology allows us to view the body’s organs to see their functions and diagnose possible conditions or diseases. I first developed an interest in the field of Medical Sonography during my pregnancy with my first child. When I laid eyes upon the images of the growing little person inside of me, I knew I wanted to share in the joys of others as they experienced this as well (realizing this may not always be the case for others). Now returning to college, I have set my academic goals on the path towards this career. It wasn’t until I completed the Anatomy

    I sat in my child development class in a “brick and mortar” classroom setting. What was I doing there? I was extremely interested in what the professor was speaking on and what was being discussed. However, I was beginning to doubt whether I wanted to continue in my current field of study, Speech/Language Pathology. I no longer felt I was being fulfilled. There was something lacking. I talked to a few of my friends who mentioned how much money I would make as a Speech/Language Pathologist. I heard what they were saying, but somehow it just did not matter. I had to find the missing link…….

    What is there to do after you have finished reading William Harvey 's, On the Motion of the Heart and Blood? You begin your own dissection of the heart in order to find truth or faults in William Harvey 's investigation. I did just that. I was given two hearts to dissect; one was a moderately sized sheep heart with lungs attached, and the other was a massive cow heart. When digesting both hearts I had set different goals on what I was going to view. For instance, in the sheep heart I was primarily focused on the four openings going to and from the right and left ventricles of the heart. I also I need to keep in mind the relationship between the heart and the lungs because I could see them vividly. Meanwhile, for the cow heart I wanted to create

    My affinity for biology comes from my childhood days that I spent watching dissection of rats and looking at the cellular structure under microscope. My mother, being a professor of biology regularly used to take me with her to a Biology lab and that is where my journey towards medical career began. Early on in my life, my family went through a long agony of my father's illness and death. This became a solitary stimulus for me to take up this profession and a driving force to strive for excellence. Going through that turmoil of recurrent hospital visits gave me a firsthand experience of an anguishing family.

    When Vilayanur Ramachandran, one of the most prominent neuroscientists of our time, was asked how he came to be interested in the brain, he replied “How can anyone NOT be interested in it? Everything you call 'human nature' and consciousness arises from it”. I could not agree more. After all, the complexity and efficacy of the brain is what differentiates homo-sapiens from other species. It is where war and peace originate, love and hatred exist, religions created and destroyed; the source of our sensations, feelings, memory, action, creativity and communication; it is the epitome of humanity and the keeper of the soul. And what can be more challenging than to specialize in the human brain?

  • White Rat Dissection Lab Report

    988 Words  | 2 Pages

    The first step was to obtain the White Rat and to tie it in the supine position, anterior surface facing up in side the dissection pan. To tie the animal, we used butcher’s twine and secured the front and hinds legs using a “lasso” technique, careful not touch the sharp claws. To make the first insicion I had to locate the Xifoid Process of the rat (distal aspect of the sternum). Once I had located the Xifoid Process, I had to use forceps to pull the skin of the animal’s abdomen up and use the scissors to cut. The first incision is made from stem to sternum, cutting through the errectos abdomen muscle down to the groin. The second incision ion is perpendicular to the first below the diaphragm. Because of this technique we were able to open the abdominal cavity first. The third and forth incisions were made bilaterally above the legs. The last two incisions were made in upside down “V” shape on the collarbone, to expose the thoracic cavity. This dissection was both sharp, because of the use of the scissors and scapel and blunt because of the use of the probe and forceps to move organs and skin to expose other organs not yet identified.

    Curiosity, ambition, determination and passion are the core constituents that have driven me into the field of biology. I am a very analytical and a punctilious individual. I have always been fascinated by the components of biology since I was a child. I have always been curious and always had the desire to learn to enhance my knowledge. Hard-work and dedication are the building blocks for success. I can remember as a child picking up insects from outside and taking them inside my house to dissect them with a safety pin and play pretend that I was a biologists. I can remember in middle school entering a plethora of small school science projects and winning certificates for outstanding biology student. This immense inertia for investigation and careful scrutiny has propelled my love for science and will expand as I go in-depth in the field of biology. I love to solve complex problems and love being stimulated intellectually. I succeeded in advance biology when I was in high school and have done well in most of my biology classes in college. I have this unequivocal desire to achieve w...

    ... lykkeleg. Eg meiner at ein treng meir enn pengar for å vere lykkeleg, ein treng kjærleik. Masse kjærleik. Verken mannen eller kvinna var lykkelege. Mannen var sur fordi han elska nesten aldri meir med kona, og kvinna var sur fordi hu ikkje følte seg elska. Eg trur forfattaren prøver å fortelja oss at å leve i eit kjærleikslaust ekteskap ikkje er sunt, og at pengar er ikkje alt her i verda. Eg likte novella godt, den kan vere litt kjeisam til tider, men bodskapet er så bra. Bodskapet er så utrolig viktig, og det er viktig at folk forstår bodskapet, derfor likte eg denne novella. Eg trur faktisk at denne novella er like gyldig i dag, som den kunne ha vore for 50 eller 100 eller 500 år sida. Fordi folk har alltid trudd, og vil alltid tro at pengar og rikdom betyr lykke, men det er ikkje det einaste ein må ha for å vere lykkeleg. Ein treng ekte kjærleik òg.
