Chicken Wing Anatomy Lab

                In our Lab Today we discussed and watched the dissection of a chicken wing. The purpose was to observe the dissection to learn and identify the different types of tissue and organs. We also had to pay attention of what color each item was, like the skin, muscle, ligament, and cartilage. We didn't find a nerve while we watched. In the lab the tissue that actually moved the chicken wing was the muscle. The role of the epithelial is to keep the muscle, cartilage, and ligaments protected. Also, the chicken wings are similar to human arms because in both the muscles allows the arm or wing to move. There different because in human bones the longer and there is more cartilage, in chicken wings the bones are shorter and there is less cartilage.
