Why are pigs similar in anatomical structure to human?
Pigs and humans share anatomical similarities because they are both mammals with a similar evolutionary history. This similarity in structure can be attributed to a common ancestor that gave rise to both species. As omnivores, pigs and humans have adapted similar structures to support their dietary needs and lifestyle.
How does the semimembranosus in a pig compare with the human homolog?
The semimembranosus is a structure involved in the digestive process of pigs. It is similar to the homolog in humans since the digestive system is conserved across humans.
How many teeth have pigs got?
"Pigs have a full set of 44 teeth" Reference: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pig
Why are fetal pigs good specimens to dissect?
Because pigs have similar systems to humans, making pigs easier to learn the functionality of human anatomy.
How is a pig similar towards a human?
There are likely more/better reasons, here's some: - Humans and pigs are both omnivores - Certain organs are similar enough between the species to be able to function in the other species without the body rejecting it - Pigs are deemed to be one of the most intelligent animals (bringing them somewhat closer to humans)

Which is the best animal to get organs for humans?
pigs have the most similar organs to humans.

Why are pigs used to study the human?
Many of the pigs' organs are similar to their human counterparts, especially the heart. They are the closest we can do with out using real humans.
What is function of the abomasum?
Digests protein much like monogastrics like cats dogs and humans are able to. The Abomasum is the "true stomach" of a ruminant.
Do lions breathe like humans?
Yes, lions and humans have a similar respiratory structure.

Are pigs poisonous to humans?
No, pigs are not poisonous to humans.
HOW are pigs like human?
Pigs are very intelligent (and I daresay they are smarter than some humans). They have similar insides to us also. ANSWER II:Pigs are very similar to humans in many anatomical ways. Many vaccines and drug testings are performed on pigs prior to a human test group because our systems are similar. In addition, a human heart can be replaced with a pig heart if someone is in need of a transplant.
What is the difference between the origin of the common carotid arteries in the pig and in the human?
The carotid arteries are very similar in pigs and humans. The cardiovascular system is conserved across all mammal species including pigs and humans.
