84
Q

Do the vagina and urethra merge in female pigs? In humans?

85
Q

Explain why pigs or humans cannot breath when they are swallowing.

A

Because the epiglottis closes off the breathing passage when you swallow.

86
Q

Why is a piece of food lodged in the upper throat a life threatening

A

Because you can’t swallow and breath at the same time, and the epiglottis closes off the breathing passage so you won’t be able to breath.

From. Carbon dioxide and nitrogen.

91
Q

What is the skeletal system mostly made of at this point in development?

A

Bone? Skin? Dead pig corpse? Honestly, I have no clue. I don’t have a fetal pig at the moment, so I can’t answer this question. Truthfully, even if I did have a fetal pig, I still wouldn’t know the answer. I don’t recall ever learning this. I don’t recall learning half this stuff. Oh wait, that’s because we weren’t fucking taught it! Heh…this class is going to be the death of me. At this point I welcome death with open arms. Cruel, cruel wold. :’)
