We are told we learn how to read in the early years of primary (grade) school but we bring a lifetime of learning to reading and understanding. The process of exploration has also been a process of destruction. Instead we have a small pile of rather unattractive mushy stuff that once was a living, breathing, hopping frog.

For those studying these creatures, such knowledge can be important in better understanding how a frog moves, eat and lives.Д«ut at the end of the process we do not have a frog. After a time of careful study, we may have a much greater knowledge of frog componentry. It is so called more for function than form-while bearing many similarities, the circulatory system of a large warm-blooded mammal works differently to that of a small cold-blooded amphibian.ДЄnd so it goes through the different pieces of what was a frog. Though we call it a heart, it bears little resemblance to the ox heart we may have dissected the previous week. Perhaps we identify the little froggy heart. By examining the contents of the tiny stomach, we are able to identify some of the small bugs the frog had eaten. We begin with a whole frog* and with a sharp scalpel, tweezers and magnifying glass slowly peel away layers, muscles, blood vessels and organs, laying each piece carefully aside and cutting deeper.
