How to use "Dissect" in context?
The word "dissect" is derived from the Latin "dissecare," meaning "to cut into." In biology and health, a dissection is the process of cutting open the carcass of an animal to study its internal organs and structures. This can be done for a variety of reasons, including learning about the anatomy and physiology of an animal, studying the cause of a disease, or investigating the methods used by criminals to conceal firearms. Dissections are also used in medical training to learn how to treat various diseases and injuries.
