Rat Dissection LAB TEST

Review and Quiz Yourself

The test is normally called a dissection “Practical”. This is how most dissection tests are given!

Pans of dissected rats are situated around the lab in strategic locations.

Each rat will have numbered pins stuck in various structures.

Questions will accompany the rat and the pins.

You MUST be sure to READ the questions as you look at the pins.
