Hi taj1,
It was four decades ago, but I recall my first dissection. Most of the
girls (and several of the guys) who shared my biology class were
aghast about the whole thing. Fortunately for me, my Dad was a hunter
and I (being the oldest child even if I *was* only a girl) was well
indoctrinated in such things as skinning, gutting, and the general
usefulness of animal carcases. Your question brings back memories of
gagging teens and the smell of formaldehyde -- not to mention the
stern face of my diminutive teacher, Miss Cavanagh. I thank you for
that. :)
Here's a great interactive site -- follow through it (you need Flash
6, and there's a link to a free download for it on this page). You can
choose from 'dissection with quizzes and test' or 'straight forward
dissection.'
Froguts - An Amazing Online Virtual Dissection of a Frog
http://www.froguts.com/
I do believe that by checking out both options offered by this most
excellent presentation, you'll get all the information you need. My
personal preference is the 'quizzes and test' option. What a truly
wonderful experience this is!
I wish you well,
revbrenda1st

do you know a site that can define: all blood vessels going to and
from the heart, carotid artery, cutaneous artery, systemic arch, and
truncus arteriorur?
These are all parts of the frog's circulatory system. Also, how to
remove and dissect the tongue of the frog.
Thanks Again

Hi again taj1,
I'm sorry I did not get a chance to respond to your clarification
before you rated my answer. We are in different time zones and at the
time you asked for gurther information I was sound asleep in my bed. I
hope the pages I'm offering you now will be what you need to
successfully close this question.
The following site has a diagram of a frog's circulatory system:
Frog - Circulatory System
http://www.student.loretto.org/zoology/Graphic%20webs/Frog-%20circulatory%20system.htm
The next is text only and is a 7th grade activity plan -- text-only
which provides a simple, step-by-step procedure list.

Here's another good site. The text is accompanied by drawings.
Frog Dissection
http://sps.k12.ar.us/massengale/frog_dissection.htm
You'll need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader to read the follwing
information. The tongue is discussed briefly on page three. It's in
PDF format:

I could find nothing at all about actually dissecting a frog's tongue.
I've checked dozens of sites and most simply say to remove the tongue.
At least the anatomy page listed above says to use a dissecting probe,
and reminds the student to note where it was attached.

Once more, taj1,
Somehow I sent the answer clarification twice -- the first was not the
final draft and, therefore, was neither spell-checked nor proof-read.
I apologize for this.
