Scientists dissect (cut up) other organisms to learn more about their anatomy, or body structure. In doing so, scientists can also learn more about human anatomy. In the Frog Dissection Gizmo, you will complete a virtual dissection of a frog.
First, select the Female frog.
You have the following tools: scalpel, forceps, and pins.
Use the tools to cut and pull back the skin and muscles of the frog's chest.
Once you have opened the frog's chest cavity (don't forget the pins!), practice taking a screenshot of your frog.
Use the camera button located to the upper right of the frog or use Tools > Screenshot. Right click on the image and choose "Copy image."
Return to Formative and paste your screen shot in the box below. Use Control + v (PCs) or Command + v (Macs) to paste your screenshot.
