Lung dissection

Posted by sat on Mon, 2014-04-21 18:41

This is a video showing a lung dissection.

This 5-minute video shows a teacher from Preston College (UK) inflating sheep lungs.

There is also a brief view of a fully dissected set of lungs that shows the trachea, bronchioles, and individual lobes. This could be shown to a class or used as an instructional guide for a teacher.

Safety alert:

Blowing via a piece of rubber tubing into the lungs with your mouth is not a recommended procedure due to the possibility of inhaling aerosols from the lungs as the air is expelled. It is best practice to use a bicycle pump. In addition, safety glasses should be worn during all dissections.

Australian Curriculum v9 Codes: AC9S8U01 (Year 8), AC9S8U02 (Year 8)
