Grade 12 Biology engages in Kidney Dissection

Tuesday, May 30, 2017

The grade 12 students participated in their first dissection for the Homeostasis unit.  Learning about the kidneys and their functions has been rewarding as they play a crucial role in maintaining water balance and excreting wastes.  The excretory system begins with the kidneys and the students were able to identify the cortex, medulla, renal vein, renal artery and ureter.  

What an exciting day!
