On Thursday, October 20, My science class did a chicken wing  lab. It was pretty cool!. The teacher cut back the peachy skin, which was attached to muscle. She showed us how the flexor muscle bends the joints in a chicken wing and the extensor lengthens the bone by pulling on the muscles, which worked perfectly! Then, onto the shiny, white tendons, which attach muscles to bones.We found cartilage and ligaments but sadly not nerves.The teacher also cracked the bone in half and showed us the bone marrow. Our class also found the differences and similarities between human anatomy and a chicken wing's anatomy.
