TWIS #8

Side View
Ventral Interior View


This week in science my partner, Matthew, and I dissected a cricket.Before dissecting,we drew pictures of the cricket from both a dorsal and ventral view.The first cut made on the cricket was from it's head to it's posterior.After, we cut off the proximal part of the cricket's leg.After making all of our cuts we then opened up the cricket.Once the cricket was open we examined it's insides.


This week in science I learned about crickets and crawfish.I learned about both of these animals environments and what they need to live.I also learned some of the cricket's and crawfish's similar features.I  learned what the inside of both of these animals looks like and how their body parts move and function.
