Dissection

• The lamb died because of natural causes.
• the lamb was very large
• Dr brown cut out all of its organs and laid them
  out on a tray,
• We then examined all of them to see if there was
  anything wrong with the organs,
• organs were in working order apart from the
  liver was slightly small for such a big lamb,
  this also could have been another reason for its
  death as it would have not been able to remove
  all of the toxins out of its body.
• After examining the internal organs, Dr Brown
  opened the skull of the lamb to show us its
  brain, it was very slimy.

Results

• From the dissection we discovered
• The unusually dark colour of the brain could
  indicate an abnormality, or brain injury that
  could have lead to the death of the lamb.
• The colour and fusion of the internal organs
  showed that the lamb had died within 24hours of
  being born.
• The liver, in size, was particularly small in
  relation to the size of the lamb but otherwise
  were healthy before death.

Conclusion

• We enjoyed watching the dissection of the lamb,
  and learnt that
• A lamb has 4 stomachs, similar to a cow, but only
  requires one before it starts feeding on grass
  as the bacteria that breaks down cellulose is
  developed in the others.
• The Spleen is vital for helping the body's immune
  system, this can be easily damaged, and you can
  survive without it.
• Aromatherapy candles do not
• mask the smell of a lambs lung!

• During this lecture we became more aware of the
  plastics around us, including more revolutionised
  items such as
• Blood made from plastic, which anyone can use
  if needed!
• Dissolvable laundry bags, which can help better
  hygiene in hospitals.
• A new era for shopping, Wifi, fridges, watching
  tv, lights changing life altogether.
