Anatomy and Physiology is a dynamic textbook for the two-semester human anatomy and physiology course for life science and allied health majors. The book is organized by body system and covers standard scope and sequence requirements. Its lucid text, strategically constructed art, career features, and links to external learning tools address the critical teaching and learning challenges in the course. The web-based version of Anatomy and Physiology also features links to surgical videos, histology, and interactive diagrams.

The video provides an overview of the autonomic nervous system and its two main divisions: the sympathetic and parasympathetic systems. The sympathetic division responds to stress and activates the fight or flight response, leading to various physiological changes such as dilated pupils, increased heart rate, and the release of norepinephrine and epinephrine. In contrast, the parasympathetic division promotes the rest and digest response, causing opposite effects on the organs like constricted pupils and slower heart rate. The video also delves into the anatomy and neurotransmitters involved, discussing terms like preganglionic and postganglionic neurons, adrenergic and cholinergic receptors, and the specific functions of these receptors in various organs and tissues.

Human Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) 242 is the second class in a two quarter sequence in which human anatomy and physiology are studied using a body systems approach with emphasis on the interrelationships between form and function at the gross and microscopic levels of organization. You can think of this course as “An Owner’s Guide to the Human Body”. My goal is to help you learn how your body works so that you can explain concepts to others and apply knowledge to novel situations (e.g. make informed decisions regarding your own health and those whom you care about). You’ll also learn how to evaluate scientific research that forms the basis of our understanding of human anatomy and physiology and gain an appreciation for what remains to be discovered. To accomplish these goals requires significant effort from both of us. Although you will need to commit information to memory, I will ask you to focus on learning for understanding and your assessments will reflect this emphasis.
You will also gain experience problem solving, interpreting data, communicating verbally and in writing with others, developing information literacy skills, using technology and exploring how your knowledge of anatomy and physiology can be applied to real world health challenges. This course is designed to build the core knowledge and skills needed to succeed in a world that demands flexibility and continuous learning and to prepare you for advanced study of anatomy, physiology and clinically-related subjects.

The interactives in this book were created by the Open Education Lab at Ontario Tech University in Ontario, Canada. Subject matter expertise was provided throughout the process by Dr. Elita Partosoedarso, Faculty of Health Sciences, Ontario Tech.
While the interactives are specifically based on the diagrams and content found in the Anatomy and Physiology textbook by OpenStax, they can be used with other human anatomy and physiology courses and textbooks.

The Biology 256 Laboratory course was designed to provide students with hands-on access to modern techniques in human physiological analyses using the course-based research pedagogical approach. In this course, students will learn how to perform literature searches; generate research questions and hypotheses; design experiments; collect, analyze, visualize and interpret data; and present scientific findings to others. The Biol 256L curriculum offers a high-impact human physiology experience that fosters the critical thinking skills required to be a successful citizen in a modern world filled with misinformation.
