Integrated Human Physiology Laboratory Book and Manual by Wilfredo Lopez-Ojeda - Fourth Edition, 2017 from Macmillan Student Store

Integrated Human Physiology is a laboratory book and manual that focuses on the four basic human tissues: epithelia, connectives, nervous, and muscles. By taking a unique tissues-based approach to the study of physiology, this text departs from the traditional, systems-based approach to learning and emphasizes cell functionality, cohesiveness, and integration.

Physiological topics and concepts are organized into five units—Balance Systems and Dynamic Constancy, Muscle Tissue Physiology, Nervous Tissue Physiology, Connective Tissues Physiology, and Epithelial Tissues Physiology—each of which includes chapters with explanatory text, interactive laboratories, diverse learning activities, and  compelling review questions with concise explanations. The new edition also includes an improved full-color layout and eye-catching photography of the human body’s functionality, among other features.

Features

  • Revised content, additional activities, and laboratory exercises
  • Includes new and appealing layout with full-colored bleeds and new pictures
  • New and improved organization orchestrating the four human basic tissues into physiology
  • Features measurable learning objectives at the beginning of each chapter and laboratory exercise
  • Thought-provoking clinical correlations and functional applications
  • Assessment of core concepts within each chapter by pertinent review questions presented at the end of the chapters
  • Facilitates visual learning with unique photographic art, illustrations, tables, and colorful charts
  • Includes perforated pages for students to detach and turn in their original lab reports
  • More physiological concepts, clinical applications, and practice questions
