With modules corresponding to the material in Patton's Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology text, Anatomy and Physiology Online demonstrates complex A&P concepts in a clear and concise way. Audio and visual elements bring anatomy and physiology to life, including hundreds of step-by-step animations and interactive exercises. Within each module, a set of lessons helps students understand, study, and review anatomic structures and physiologic concepts.

      • 500 full-color images of anatomic structures and physiologic concepts are included.
      • Over 100 state-of-the-art animations clarify anatomic and physiologic processes and provide a realistic foundation of underlying structures and functions -- such as air flow through the respiratory tract, pulmonary circulation, events of the cardiac cycle, and sensory and motor pathways of the central nervous system.
      • Essential information is highlighted and easy to read, with extensive use of diagrams and illustrations.
      • More than 250 interactive exercises include a variety of engaging activities such as crossword puzzles, labeling, and sequencing.
      • Reading assignments focus on related content in the textbook and the companion Study Guide.
      • Immediate feedback is provided for self-assessment questions and lesson exams in each module, allowing you to measure your comprehension and enhance your understanding.
      • A complete glossary defines key terms and concepts, and includes audio pronunciations.
      • Audio clips of actual heart and lung sounds bring learning to life.
