Chicken Wing Dissection

In science class we dissected a chicken wing. We saw epithelial tissue, muscle tissue, nerve tissue and connective tissue. First, we felt the chicken's skin it felt a bit bumpy and it was a yellowish color, that was attached to muscle tissue. Next, we observed the muscle tissue. As we were pulling the muscle the wing was moving back and forth. We saw the nerve tissue looking as a red line in the muscle it looked kind of like a red vain. The epithelial tissue would be the skin on the chicken wing. The connective tissue we discussed about bones and about how inside the bones there is marrow and the cartilage. This experiment has taught me about different types of tissue it was also very fun and I would definitely want to do it again
