🔬 Science in action with Mrs. Bisignani's Medical Detectives class! 🧠 Students dissected chicken wings to explore muscles (biceps/triceps), bones (ulna, radius, humerus), tendons, and ligaments. Just like a human arm, the students could manipulate the muscles and tendons to make the "arm" move! One of the biggest surprises? When students cut into the bone and discovered bright red bone marrow—because that’s where red blood cells are made! 🩸 Hands-on learning at its best! 🧡 #MedicalDetectives
