Class IX Practical: Animal Life - Organ Study (Lung and Skin)

Objective

To identify and understand the basic structure and function of the human lung and skin using specimens, models, or charts.

Guidelines

1. Lung

Identification: Observe the external features of a lung specimen/model/chart (e.g., color, texture, lobes).
Internal Structure (Brief): Understand the pathway of air: trachea -> bronchi -> bronchioles -> alveoli. Identify the pleura.
Function: Understand its primary role in gaseous exchange (oxygen intake, carbon dioxide release).
Drawing: Draw a neat, labeled diagram of the human lung and its associated air passages.

2. Skin

Identification: Observe a model or chart of the human skin.
Layers: Identify the main layers: epidermis, dermis, and subcutaneous tissue (hypodermis).
Associated Structures: Locate hair follicles, sebaceous glands, sweat glands, nerve endings, and blood vessels.
Function: Understand its multiple roles: protection, temperature regulation, sensation, excretion, vitamin D synthesis.
Drawing: Draw a neat, labeled diagram of a cross-section of the human skin.

Expected Outcome

Ability to identify and label the key parts of the human lung and skin, and understand their basic anatomical organization and physiological functions.
