Designed for undergraduate courses emphasizing human anatomy and using the cat for dissection, this popular manual (organized by system) offers exercises that highlight the differences and similarities between feline and human anatomy.

A comprehensive manual of anatomical dissection, this title provides in-depth and detailed explanations for each dissection, enabling students to self-teach. It correlates surface anatomy to anatomical structures revealed in the dissections, which is important for clinical correlation.

This is a lab manual for a college-level human anatomy course. Mastery of anatomy requires a fair amount of memorization and recall skills. The activities in this manual encourage students to engage with new vocabulary in many ways, including grouping key terms, matching terms to structures, recalling definitions, and written exercises. Most of the activities in this manual utilize anatomical models, and several dissections of animal tissues and histological examinations are also included. Each unit includes both pre- and post-lab questions and six lab exercises designed for a classroom where students move from station to station. The vocabulary terms used in each unit are listed at the end of the manual and serve as a checklist for practicals.

Known for its clear descriptions and art program, this lab manual examines every structure and function of the human body. It features dissection of the cat, numerous physiological experiments, and an emphasis on the study of anatomy through histology. In addition to a large variety of illustrations, helpful learning support includes lists of appropriate terms accompanying art, numerous photomicrographs and specimen photos, phonetic pronunciations and derivations of terms, diagrams of lab equipment, and lab report questions and report templates. An instructor's guide is available and provides detailed information for instructors about needed materials, suggestions, and answers to questions. Important Notice: Media content referenced within the product description or the product text may not be available in the ebook version.

"Dissection Simplified" is a set of worksheets designed to teach students how to learn anatomy and complete dissections even when an instructor is not available to answer questions. The manual helps students understand how to complete the steps in a dissection using the cat as a model for major body systems. The language and tone are student-friendly and free of unnecessary technical information, focusing instead on supporting students, and walking them through the process of the lab exercise as they work independently. "Dissection Simplified" also addresses common problems students experience when completing dissections, such as finding specific muscles when they are not immediately visible, knowing when a dissection exercise is truly complete, and successfully preparing for examinations on dissection. "Dissection Simplified" is an effective companion lab manual to standard anatomy textbooks. It can be used in lower division general human anatomy courses at universities and community colleges. It may also be suitable for high school anatomy classes which use cat dissections to study non-modeled body systems.
