Anatomy & Physiology
The app follows the scope and sequence of most Human Anatomy and Physiology courses, and its coverage and organization were informed by hundreds of instructors who teach the course.
The artwork for this app is aimed focusing student learning through a powerful blend of traditional depictions and instructional innovations.
Color is used sparingly, to emphasize the most important aspects of any given illustration. Significant use of micrographs from the University of Michigan complement the illustrations, and provide the students with a meaningful alternate depiction of each concept.
Finally, enrichment elements provide relevance and deeper context for students, particularly in the areas of health, disease, and information relevant to their intended careers.

Unit 1: Levels of Organization
Chapters 1–4 provide students with a basic understanding of human anatomy and physiology, including its language, the levels of organization, and the basics of chemistry and cell biology. These chapters provide a foundation for the further study of the body. They also focus particularly on how the body’s regions, important chemicals, and cells maintain homeostasis.
Chapter 1 An Introduction to the Human Body
Chapter 2 The Chemical Level of Organization
Chapter 3 The Cellular Level of Organization
Chapter 4 The Tissue Level of Organization
Unit 2: Support and Movement
In Chapters 5–11, students explore the skin, the largest organ of the body, and examine the body’s skeletal and muscular systems, following a traditional sequence of topics. This unit is the first to walk students through specific systems of the body, and as it does so, it maintains a focus on homeostasis as well as those diseases and conditions that can disrupt it.
Chapter 5 The Integumentary System
Chapter 6 Bone and Skeletal Tissue
Chapter 7 The Axial Skeleton
Chapter 8 The Appendicular Skeleton
Chapter 9 Joints
Chapter 10 Muscle Tissue
Chapter 11 The Muscular System
Unit 3: Regulation, Integration, and Control
Chapters 12–17 help students answer questions about nervous and endocrine system control and regulation. In a break with the traditional sequence of topics, the special senses are integrated into the chapter on the somatic nervous system. The chapter on the neurological examination offers students a unique approach to understanding nervous system function using five simple but powerful diagnostic tests.
Chapter 12 Introduction to the Nervous System
Chapter 13 The Anatomy of the Nervous System
Chapter 14 The Somatic Nervous System
Chapter 15 The Autonomic Nervous System
Chapter 16 The Neurological Exam
Chapter 17 The Endocrine System
Unit 4: Fluids and Transport
In Chapters 18–21, students examine the principal means of transport for materials needed to support the human body, regulate its internal environment, and provide protection.
Chapter 18 Blood
Chapter 19 The Cardiovascular System: The Heart
Chapter 20 The Cardiovascular System: Blood Vessels and Circulation
Chapter 21 The Lymphatic System and Immunity
Unit 5: Energy, Maintenance, and Environmental Exchange
In Chapters 22–26, students discover the interaction between body systems and the outside environment for the exchange of materials, the capture of energy, the release of waste, and the overall maintenance of the internal systems that regulate the exchange. The explanations and illustrations are particularly focused on how structure relates to function.

Very good explanations for nonmedical readers. Sad that further reading not possible due to the steep rate of upgrade that too not one time
So far so good. I have just finished the first chapter, it was easy to read and understand and I was not overwhelmingly hit with ads every 5 seconds like some of the similar apps on the market.
Very good study tool for anybody interested in anatomy and physiology. The lessons are short and yet concise enough to enhance your learning. Definitely worth the download :)
Clear and concise. A good book to work from and useful excersise. If videos worked inside of the app, rather than redirecting, it would have five stars.
A print option would be really nice for those who can't study in digital formats. It's a pitty, really. The app has realy comprehensive lessons...
Essentially a free textbook. Helping me refresh myself before I go into paramedic school. Not only teaches the fundamentals, but also gives tons of extra info to help retain those fundamentals. Thank you.
This app is amazing so far. It's easy to understand each lesson. The images are clear. There are questions after each question which is extremely good!
My A&P textbook is very wordy, hard to read. Some terms are used and not really introduced until much later in the chapter. This is broken down into plain English, very easy to understand.
It's really good, but i want to suggest maybe more exercises so that it will have more ways to learn a particular lessons. Anyway, this is impressive i would recommend this app.
I really convince 1st year college students majoring in medical fields , to use this app. In my experience , it is very helpful mainly in practice tests and basic explanation .
excellent supplemental with classwork, and helps break the monotony of my self made study guides. actually pretty fun
it's a big help for those who want to memorizing easily the anatomy and physiology!! 👍👍👍
Detailed well explained anatomy and physiology with accurate and relevant clinical correlates. Intuitive and preparatory educative practice questions, glossary and flashcards. Recommended for all basic medical sciences preparation
It's one of the best medical applications for the year 1 medical students......it has a tremendous features like details explanation and brighter image with necessary portion labeling!!!
Its great and has amazing information and good flash cards but you have to pay for most of the chapters.
ssimple and easy to use. ads minimal not impeding the ability to study hassle free.
I didn't understand how to navigate through this app. the phraseology was very strange. It was not user-friendly
An excellent app, has quizzes, almost similar knowledge to my text book. It has some additional informations.
Very educational and specif to nursing
Good app but most of units locked its unfare, we download apps coz we cant afford text books. This is even more expensive
You must have adible to be able to fully obtain the information. Other than that seems ok.
enjoying the subject. easy to understand. Best part is the practice after every lesson
Absolutely amazing. It starts you from the very beginning. Great for learning!
Great for someone who knows nothing about anatomy and physiology. Explanation is clear and easy to understand
The book is easy to use and explains everything to your understanding
Good app it helps me alot in Anatomy and Physiology there are good notes which are well summarised...
love it, very detailed and uses language that lets you understand everything clearly
Most of the content is locked .....don't waste time and money on this useless app....I bet u .u gonna regret for it
The app is loaded with anatomy and physiology.. Its a full package
This is a great application that is very well put together; however, the figures when clicked on just produce a blank screen and the animations lead to dead links. This app needs to be updated and maintained. It is the best anatomy app I have found, and I paid for the premium version. I expect these features to work.
