Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual and E-Labs, 12th Edition

• Step-by-step “check-box” dissection instructions with accompanying illustrations and photos cover anatomical models and fresh or preserved specimens — and provide helpful guidance during dissection labs
• 250 illustrations include microscopic and common histology slides, photos of cat, pig, and mink dissections, photos of various bones, and depictions of proper procedures
• Eight interactive eLabs provide a realistic laboratory experience in an interactive digital environment
• Complete lists of materials for each exercise provide handy checklists for planning and setting up laboratory activities, allowing for easy and efficient preparation
• Modern anatomical imaging techniques are introduced, such as computed tomography (CT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and ultrasonography, and challenge you to interpret actual images of the human body
• Images of microscopic anatomy include “zooming in” to microscope slide images at high-power magnification
• Tear-out Lab Reports contain checklists, drawing exercises, and questions that help demonstrate your understanding of the labs you have participated in, and also allow instructors to easily check your progress
• Labeling exercises and coloring exercises make it easier to identify and remember critical structures examined in the lab and in lectures
• Learning objectives at the beginning of each exercise offer a clear framework for learning
• Hint boxes provide special tips on handling specimens, using equipment, and managing lab activities
• Review questions provide tools to reinforce and apply your knowledge of anatomy and function concepts
• Convenient spiral binding allows for hands-free viewing in the lab setting
• Evolve companion website includes learning features and activities
