Did you have to dissect a.............?

it is a hermaphrodite...this also occurs in many invertebrates including flatworms and some earthworms.  \n\nremember that a hermaphrodite does not mean that it mates with itself spontaneously, though.  it still needs a mate, but it can serve as either a male or female since it has both sets of reproductive organs.

I did a quick search for it and found a snipped at megaessays.com\n\nOf course my personally recomendation would be to read the book and do it yourself, but if you need a start this may be a place to help.

Huh?  Are you putting together an outline or something?

Once again...\nI've heard of good computer models that can teach the same principles of dissecting w/out the need of an animal- So... technically I don't see why a school should obligate you to cut open a dead animal; however, sometimes what they are trying to convey IS the dissection- and just like with so many things in life- you can read about it, go through a simulation, etc... but you never quite fully grasp it until you've experienced it. Should a student be able to opt out? probably... Should that student continue down a path/career where those skills may be useful to them?... probably not. God Bless, good luck, n peace.

How small?  Now come on you know we all are wondering.  What kind of accident?  Did you cut part of it off?  What a weird question!

I think a hands on approach is the best way for most students to understand a concept.  In this case it means dissection.  There are a few students that are so squeamish that they simply can't handle it.  Can they learn the concept? Yes but the technique that is effective for most cannot be applied to them.  I had a student that made every effort to dissect in class but had such a weak stomach that she had to leave the room.  She still learned the material just had to find a different approach.

Once upon a time my boss asked me to take apart a $10,000 piece of electronic hardware piece by piece. \n\nWhy you ask? \n\nWell you see it had been slightly scratched by someones watch. He wanted to spray paint the scratched piece. \n\nI warned him that I had hardware made by the same brand and they tended to use interlocking pieces later braced by the circuit boards. But he wanted it painted. So I took all 75 screws out. Wouldn't you know it all the pieces interlocked and were held together by the circuit boards. So he asks me to put it back, then cover it with newspapers except for the offending area so we can spray paint it while together.\n\nAll went well and the machine looked great. I thought. He noticed that there was an area where I had let the tape holding the newspaper down go over into the spray painted area. There was a spot about 3-4 mm thick by 3-4 cm long area that could barely be seen. He told me when we had time we'd fix it.\n\nAll this while I still had to attend to my regular duties.
