Question

What are the pros and cons of animal dissections in schools?

Answer 1

There are many pros and cons of animal discretion in the schools in which pros include the deep study of animals and its part from external organs to internal nerves whereas the cons include the depletion of animal population and many more.

Complete answer:
An animal study in school helps in the practical study of animals and their part and it also helps the student in deep study of animals in theory and practical both.
The pros of animal dissection include the deep study of animal anatomy and physiology in a practical way and also it gives experience because a visual study of anything helps to remind that thing easily and It also decreases the fear among students from touching the animal and dissecting it.
The cons of animal dissection include depletion in their population, even some students do not feel it good to dissect living animals and in the case of dead animals, the smell of formalin makes students uncomfortable.

Additional Information:
In higher study animals like especially transgenic animals are used to study the normal physiology and development of animals, disease development and its cure, vaccine testing, growth in their body etc. and in case of wool producing and milk-producing animals the gene study helps in the development of wool in sheep and production of milk in cattle.

Note:
The transgenic pig has similar genes to that of animals and this gene possesses similar human antigens. The study of pigs helps in organ transplantation like pancreas, kidney, heart, etc. If the organ transplantation does not produce a reaction that means it eliminates the requirement of transplantation of human organs.
