Question

Is the use of animals to learn the parts of a frog in biology a good idea?

Answer 1

Dissection allows you to look at the animal's anatomy first hand.

Explanation:

Seeing is believing and doing is learning. Dissection is invaluable in learning Anatomy .

Only when you carry out a dissection do you get a first hand experience of what the inside of an animal looks like.

Relative positions of the organs are also understood better.

It helps you to appreciate the differences between animals of different species/taxonomic groups.

If a young student of Biology aspires to study medicine then animal dissection is the best way to hone skills in taking apart an organism systematically and neatly, which will help in performing surgery and in practice of internal medicine.
