Filled with hands-on activities, Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual is a fun and flexible complement to any introductory A&P course that has a lab component, particularly those with limited lab time. The manual not only allows students to complete physiological experiments, but it also takes the unique approach of helping students see A&P concepts from a real-world point of view, based on what they already know about the body. While traditional lab manuals simply cover core concepts, Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual incorporates concepts into engaging scenarios involving crime detectives, superheroes, and more to help the material resonate with students.

    • Labeling exercises help you memorize the small details of complicated body parts and processes.
    • Practical experiments that center on your own physiological processes and knowledge of the world in general help you make connections between the text, lab, and the world around you.
    • Numerous full-color illustrations and photomicrographs help you visualize difficult concepts and reinforce development of spatial perspective.
