Blog about my experience dissecting the heart

What have we been learning? For the past few days in science, we have been learning what is a circulatory system and also how to dissect a heart. We are doing this to learn how does a heart work and their function are. 

Why are we dissecting heart? We are dissecting the heart so that we can learn all those labels and functions that we have learnt.   

What are the parts of the heart? Did you see them?

Atrium - The atrium is the upper chamber of the heart that receives blood.

Ventricle - The ventricle is responsible for pumping the blood away from the heart.

Valves - The purpose of the valves is to move the blood around the body.

Pulmonary Artery - The right ventricle artery which pumps oxygen to the lungs.

The two-part of the heart that we did not see is the vein and the atrium because it got cut off. 

Did you enjoy the dissection? Why/ Why not? I did enjoy the dissection because I've learnt a lot of different things that I did not know yet.
