Description

The study of human anatomy and physiology really comes to life in the anatomy and physiology laboratory, where students get hands-on experience with human cadavers and bones, classroom models, preserved and fresh animal organs, histology slides of human tissues, and learn the process of scientific discovery through physiology experimentation. This lab manual is intended to provide students with tools to make the subject matter more relevant to their own bodies and to the world around them. It is an interactive workbook for students: a 'how-to' guide to learning human anatomy and physiology through touch, dissection, observation, experimentation, and critical thinking exercises. Chapter 28 is unique to this Fetal Pig Version of the Lab Manual and contains 16 exercises designed to walk students through dissection and identification of all systems and structures of the fetal pig, beginning with the skeletal system and progressing through all systems.
