Animal dissections are used in schools because they help kids have a hands on way of seeing what happens inside a body. Things such as looking at the digestive system and the veins and muscle. I also dont think animal dissections r good in schools because if a kid has a weak stomach then…well you can see where im going with that. The dissections can be good for showing kids how the body works in animals. This is why i think animal dissections are used in schools.
