Why bother? These labs are difficult for several reasons, but I hope that one or more of the difficulties will be solved by this page and its links. (1) It is difficult to study for a test on disections without having them there in front of you. This page should help with this somewhat. (2) It is also difficult to guess at what types of questions will be asked on the exam. So, I have put sample questions with some of the photos while others have labels. ALL the test material is not present here. I have only placed items here that can't be found in the text.
I've found some interesting photographs and drawings relating to human anatomy and physiology, though not necessarily related to the current material of the class. These can be found at the bottom of this page. Warning, if you are not a student of mine, please beware. Some of the photographs are of adult and fetal cadavers.
For the web-surfing novices: read this paragraph. Anything underlined or outlined in blue or purple is a link and will take you to specific pictures or pages. Click on the word or picture outlined, and your browser will take you there automatically. Just press the "back" button (upper-left hand corner of browser) to return to previous pages. When photos are outlined and you click on them the photo itself will come up, separate from the page and you can save it to your own computer or disk. When words are underlined and you click on them, you will be taken to another page I made to keep things organized. The graphics files are very large (see individual listings) because I wanted to retain the detail of the photographs. Have patience or don't bother! None of the files are larger than a hundred kilobytes (100,000 bytes), so any computer should be able to load them.
