This week in science we got the chance to dissect a couple of preserved organisms. My group had to dissect a giant grasshopper, I didn't like it. It smelled horrible and made me nauseous. We looked and took pictures of the grasshopper's Dorsal view, Ventral view, mouth parts, and side view. In my picture i drew all of these and in the second picture i dissected it and pinned it down to show its insides.
This week in science I learned many things. One thing I learned was how disgusting it is inside of a bug. I never knew what it looked like in a bug, I couldn't really tell what was what in the grasshopper. I also learned that grasshoppers have weird pads on there feet that to me kinda looked like palms. Also I noticed that they have spikes on their legs, probably for protection. I saw that grasshoppers really do look like how they showed them to look like in the movie "A Bugs Life".
