Manikin Build

Project Overview

The objective of the Manikin Build is to create a visual representation of human body systems on a maniken of a human skeleton. This includes labeling the regions of the human body and creating organs, body systems, and muscles out of clay. My role in this project was to label the different regions of the manikin and build muscle tissue and organs of the human body. This project helped me learn about how tissue in the body is arranged and how they all work together to do tasks in our daily lives. Some challenges in this project included how we build the tissue with clay without it falling apart and how to place muscle tissue in the correct place so our manikin can be as accurate as we can make it. We accomplished this by finding out who was the best at building what part of the manikin and then split up the work (Ex: one person rolls the clay and molds it into its general shape, while another adds details to the clay).
