There will come a time when a student or two will be squeamish about dissecting an organism. The interviewer wants to see what your Plan B is or if you have some way to help them along in the right direction. When an interviewer sees that you have all students covered, they will feel more at ease to hire you.

"I know that not everyone will love dissection. I will do my very best to make sure they feel comfortable to take part. But, some will become squeamish. If they cannot accomplish the tasks at hand, I will have something else for them to do, so they can still participate, but without feeling like they're going to be sick. Having a back-up plan keeps engagement up and excitement flowing."
