Hello everyone!
Today for science we had to dissect a chicken wing.
The aim – The aim for this lesson was to find out where the ball joint was in the chicken leg.
The method – The steps we had to do for this lesson was…
- Get our items ready, the aluminum tray, newpapers, seeker, tweezers and scissors and the most obvious, chicken wing.
- Find the lower leg, upper thigh and the knee.
- Find the ankle at the end of the drumstick.
- Cut through the muscles over the knee to show the two bones joining at the knee.
- Bend the chicken leg at the knee and then watch how the bones move.
Our results – Unfortunately, we don’t have a photo of our experiment but all the skin was removed at the end and all we were left with was the bones!
