When we heard we are working on the dissectiong the sheep heart, I was really nervous about it. I dissected the other things, but heart was the first time. We followed the directions what the lab book provided. It has some pictures we have to find, but the information wasn't really enough to us. My partner, Angeline and I didn't have the gloves, so we struggled first few minutes. But we just worked to keep on it. When I touched the heart, I felt awkward! When we were going through the part of the heart, even it is the sheep heart, they have almost identical to the human heart. The sheep heart's size is different than the human heart! During the dissection, I was so nervous and careful to not to ruin the heart part. When I struggled with the dissecting the sheep heart, Angeline helped me alot. Angeline and I were almost running out of the time, but we finished well done. After we finished the lab, we should completed the lab book pages. The finishing the lab book pages are most hard job during the year. Of course, we didn't have time so we got the lab book pages as homework for that day! It was awesome dissection, and amazed about the heart.
