Best Answer

Starting on the ventral midline (the center line down the belly), you are cutting through the dermis then linea alba and finally the peritoneum if you incise very carefully. However, particularly in your first Biology dissection classes, you will probably deviate laterally (towards the side) off the midline. At this point, you will incise the dermis, the rectus abdominus muscle, the external oblique muscle, the internal oblique muscle, the transverse abdominus muscle then the peritoneum.
