I’m 14 and going into year 9 and I’m hoping that we do more dissections apart from hearts in biology but judging by the Australian curriculum we probably won’t do I guess rip me!
I was getting really nervous for my frog dissection but this video really helps me be less nervous because I know what to expect thank you for making this video
I commented for him to wear gloves and then he commented back and said. Who here has a science biology, I found under called for. Just because he's a scientist and got a degree dosent mean that he can show of and say something bad. I felt insulted, he made me feel dumb.😣😞😞😞😞
This will be coming in very handy. I homeschool my daughter and we will be dissecting a frog this spring! It's been 30 years since I dissected a frog, so this refresher was awesome! Thank you!
***** very desprite for what and I'm home schooled so no I'm never gonna have to do it tbh and i already asked my mom/Teacher if we had to she said no...
+Ziggidyzig2040 Because there are no known diseases that can be transmitted from amphibians to humans. Because the specimen has been preserved in a solution that inhibits all bacterial and microbial growth. Because your tactile senses ar a way in which to experience the world. Because the likelihood of causing a cut when using the blades increases significantly when you are unable to feel and control the specimen when wearing gloves.... Those are some of the reasons.
I haven't taken biology or dissected a frog since 1996, 97, and 98 and dissected a frog in each year, watching this video that i can remember the parts and how to cut and how to extract.
@@dianadiangelo8877 omg I remember back in 7th grade when we dissect frogs me and two of my friends found a gaint fly in our frog was really disgusting but surprisingly amused
Now seeing you still reading the new comments lets me know that you really do care about what your fans think of your videos, I find that extraordinary.
Great tutorial dude! Now that I've learned some things about frogs, I can be a little more prepared when dissecting one at school tomorrow. Thanks a lot, take care! c:
I have my first lot of dissections coming up for uni in the next few weeks (I want to become a zoologist) and one of the dissections is a toad. I avoided it in high school... I can no longer run from this. I'm trying to desensitise myself from the *squirms* and *internally screaming* that comes with the thought of performing a dissection. Thank you for this video also RIP toady
This was really helpful, I'm dissecting a frog or a sheep heart next week (teacher said either one)and was quite squeamish about the whole thing, but this video put me at ease, thank you ☺️
I'm 15 and my school never did this😔thank you for allowing me this experience...i didn't search this up it was actually in recommendations so i'm glad i found it and i was so proud of myself when you raised up the three liver flaps and showed the green sac and i was thinking that's the gall bladder i know that's the gall bladder and then boom he said it was the gall bladder and i was like 😌👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾imma smart boi
I didn't realize I was watching your channel until halfway through this. I'm used to your survival videos Thanks for all of your videos they're really cool!
I did dissections in my high school zoology class, though we didn't do frogs. I usually dissected lampreys. I think I might've scared my classmates with how enthusiastic I was about it XD
RUclips: You’re probably watching this bc you didn’t get to in school. Me: actually my school was closed by the state and I’ve been quarantined and this is the substitute. Nice video too!👍
I'm doing a toad dissection tomorrow and I'm scared that the toad might jump in my face during the middle of the dissection. Love from UST Junior High School. This really helps.
+HeartlandRanchTV +Bob Hansler So funny! I thought exactly the same thing. Your voice definitely made cutting open a frog much nicer sounding. Thanks for a great thorough video ;-)
Aww, Bob. Sorry, I couldn't watch this. I had a bullfrog (male, with a deep, resonating call) that lived in my yard that I called Archimedes. He wasn't exactly a pet, but my whole family loved him. He was killed by a dog and we're still mourn his passing. I do like your outdoor stuff and will continue to eagerly watch you. Hope you don't think that I'm too much of a wimp. Peace and Love to you and your family. I hope that your eyes are doing well. 🤗
+Julia Penteado He doesn't have to... He doesn't Because there are no known diseases that can be transmitted from amphibians to humans. Because the specimen has been preserved in a solution that inhibits all bacterial and microbial growth. Because your tactile senses ar a way in which to experience the world. Because the likelihood of causing a cut when using the blades increases significantly when you are unable to feel and control the specimen when wearing gloves.... Those are some of the reasons.
Awesome answer! It is true. There are many billions of live, reproducing, and very active bacteria on every one of those McDonalds Hamburgers that get consumed each day. Science, because intuition is oftentimes in contrast to reality.
TheQuentinator Why do I need a last name When Oliver Sacks (famous neurologist) was a boy in the 1950s his mother (also a Dr.) scheduled him a day at the morgue to dissect a human corpse, when he arrived he saw that it was the body of a young girl around his age, he was only fourteen. So when you dissect your frog tomorrow just be glad it isn't a fourteen year old girl.
For anyone who has to do this for school I remember being scared and grossed out to do this my sophmore year of highschool and was dreading it a week before I had to do it. Ended up being completely fine and did it without gloves on
I have to watch this for science because school was cancelled and it makes me sad because I was exited but at least now I get to call lungs frog raisins
I like it more when doing it when still alive😎😎 I might seem to be a sociopath...swear it's more fun, I mean you still could see the frogs heart beating, but I really felt guilty after doing that and burying it alive...
