What educators are saying
I used the pig dissection from biology corner and was glad to find the answer key on TPT. It was a great activity for my students.
This was a great lab guide. My students were engaged while using it, and it was detailed enough to walk them through the anatomy that they had learned but not reviewed in awhile. Great resource!
Description
This is the answer key to the free worksheet available at https://www.biologycorner.com/worksheets/fetal_pig_dissection.html
Student guide was updated in April 2024 with added questions and diagrams.
To complete all sections, I recommend purchasing double-injected fetal pigs so that the arteries and veins are visible.
Overview of the dissection instructions
- List of the structures and organs students need to know
- General safety and procedure
- External anatomy
- Anatomy of the mouth
- Internal anatomy of the abdominal cavity (mostly digestive system)
- Urinary and reproductive systems
- Internal anatomy of the thoracic cavity (heart / lungs)
- Major arteries and veins
Throughout the dissections, students answer questions about the pig, label diagrams, and remove structures.

NGSSHS-LS1-2
Develop and use a model to illustrate the hierarchical organization of interacting systems that provide specific functions within multicellular organisms. Emphasis is on functions at the organism system level such as nutrient uptake, water delivery, and organism movement in response to neural stimuli. An example of an interacting system could be an artery depending on the proper function of elastic tissue and smooth muscle to regulate and deliver the proper amount of blood within the circulatory system. Assessment does not include interactions and functions at the molecular or chemical reaction level.
