About this resource
This quiz focuses on mammalian anatomy through pig dissection, targeting the identification and understanding of major organ systems. The content is appropriate for high school biology students, typically grades 9-12, as it requires detailed knowledge of anatomical structures and their functions across multiple body systems. Students need a solid foundation in comparative anatomy, understanding that pigs serve as excellent models for mammalian organ structure due to their physiological similarities to humans. The questions assess students' ability to visually identify organs and structures including the heart chambers, digestive organs like the liver and gallbladder, respiratory structures such as the trachea and diaphragm, and components of the urinary and reproductive systems. Students must understand not only individual organ identification but also how structures work together within integrated body systems, demonstrating their grasp of the interconnected nature of biological processes. Created by Lisa Horsch, a Biology teacher in the US who teaches grade 9 through University level. This quiz serves as an excellent formative assessment tool during hands-on dissection activities, allowing students to demonstrate their understanding of anatomical structures in real-time. The format works particularly well as a guided practice exercise where students can check their identification skills while actively examining specimens, or as a review tool following dissection sessions to reinforce visual learning. Teachers can utilize this quiz for homework assignments by pairing it with dissection photos or diagrams, making it accessible for students to review anatomical knowledge outside the laboratory setting. The quiz effectively supports inquiry-based learning by requiring students to apply observational skills and anatomical knowledge simultaneously. This assessment aligns with NGSS standards HS-LS1-2 (structure and function relationships in organisms) and supports Common Core literacy standards in science through technical vocabulary development and evidence-based reasoning.
