This best-selling, restructured laboratory manual now includes an entirely new interactive website built specifically for the A&P lab course. For the first time, MyAandP.com includes Practice Anatomy Lab (PAL™) and provides students access 24/7 to a rich array of anatomy lab specimens, practice quizzes, and simulated lab practicals, gradable pre- and post-lab exercise quizzes for each of the 46 labs in the Marieb lab manual, the new PhysioEx™ 7.0, and videos of lab experiments.
New co-author Susan Mitchell has teamed up with Elaine Marieb to refine, restructure, and refresh a wide variety of beautifully illustrated activities that help students visualize and understand key anatomical structures and physiological concepts. Designed for use with any A&P textbook, the latest edition of the lab manual also features exercise review sheets that are now integrated at the end of each lab, pared-down activities that make lab time more manageable, dozens of new photos and photomicrographs that dramatically clarify the contrasts among structures, and a new PhysioEx™ 7.0 CD-ROM with brand new simulations for the respiratory system on Comparative Spirometry. The cat and fetal pig lab manual versions also include detailed dissection exercises that clearly lead students step-by-step through the dissection process.
- A wide variety of laboratory exercises meet the needs of virtually every anatomy and physiology laboratory course. The varied activities give students a “hands-on” lab experience, including organ and body dissection activities for the cat, sheep, and cow.
- Beautiful, full-color art and photos help students visualize anatomical structures and physiological concepts for laboratory practice.
- Thorough, clearly-written exercises assist students in comprehending and retaining the material with pre-lab background information, a list of objectives, step-by-step instructions, and exercise review sheets. Now integrated to immediately follow each lab exercise, the review sheets can be used for pre- or post-lab review.
- A full-color histology atlas provides clear images of tissues that the students will see in the lab.
- Easy-to-recognize icons alert the students to dissection activities, safety precautions, homeostatic imbalance sections, exercises that use BIOPAC® equipment and corresponding PhysioEx™ exercises, and A.D.A.M.® Interactive Anatomy (AIA) software material.
- BIOPAC® procedures are included for eight exercises. Procedures for Intelitool®, PowerLab®, and iWorx® are available in the Instructor Resource section of the new companion website.
- NEW Human A&P Lab Manual Companion Website saves valuable class time in the lab by helping students learn, practice, and test themselves on key laboratory concepts while they are outside of class, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. (Access is included with every new copy of the laboratory manual for no additional charge, at www.MyAandP.com.) The website includes:
- Practice Anatomy Lab (PAL™): This interactive, visually engaging study and lab assessment tool gives students access to a rich array of anatomy lab specimens including human cadavers, anatomical models, histology slides, cat dissections, and fetal pig dissections. Each module includes hundreds of images and quiz questions as well as interactive tools for reviewing the specimens and taking practice quizzes and simulated lab practical exams. Features include:
- Rich variety of quizzes which test students’ recall of anatomical structures as well as their understanding of functional anatomy and clinical application
- Built in audio pronunciation of hundreds of key anatomical terms
- Gradable lab practical exams that can report to the instructor’s online gradebook
- Gradable pre- and post-lab quizzes for each of the 46 lab exercises in the lab manual: Each of the 46 labs provides a new pre-lab quiz that students can take before coming to the lab class. After completing each lab, students can take post-lab quizzes that correspond to each of the activities in the lab exercise. Both pre- and post-lab quiz scores can be reported to the instructor’s online gradebook.
- PhysioEx™ 7.0 laboratory simulations feature a brand new laboratory simulation for the respiratory system on Comparative Spirometry. The simulation compares normal breathing, emphysema breathing, acute asthma attack breathing, acute asthma attack breathing with inhaler method applied, and breathing during exercise. PhysioEx™ 7.0 also includes seven brand-new videos (available only online) that show students how to relate their PhysioEx™ simulation to a real wet lab experience, as well as new illustrations that correspond to screenshots that help students relate the onscreen equipment to the corresponding body structures. The PhysioEx™ 7.0 CD-ROM is also automatically included with every new copy of the lab manual for no additional charge.
- Videos of laboratory experiments that demonstrate the actual experiments simulated in PhysioEx™ 7.0. The seven new videos demonstrate the following: Skeletal Muscle, Blood Typing, Cardiovascular Physiology, Water-Filled Spirometer, Nerve Impulses, BMR Measurement, and Cell Transport. These videos are available online.
- Instructor resources include a downloadable version of the Instructor Guide, downloads of the PhysioEx™ exercise Serological Testing and the Histology Review Supplement (along with their Instructor’s Guide components), and downloads of procedures for using PowerLab®, iWorx®, and Intelitool® equipment with certain lab exercises.
- NEW expanded PhysioEx™ 7.0 CD-ROM includes a brand-new laboratory simulation for the respiratory system on Comparative Spirometry. The majority of the newly-integrated review sheets are completely re-written to ask the questions one would pose after the student has done the lab exercise. Seven new videos that show students how to relate their PhysioEx™ simulation to a real wet lab experience are available on online. The PhysioEx™ 7.0 CD-ROM is automatically included with every new copy of the lab manual for no additional charge, and online access is included in the Human A&P Lab Manual companion website.
- Convenient exercise review sheets are now integrated throughout the lab manual to follow each of the 46 lab exercises instead of being grouped together in the back of the manual. The review sheets have been tightened to clearly focus on assessing students’ comprehension of the concepts learned during each lab.
- Dramatically improved photo program features nearly 30 new photomicrographs and 24 new cat dissection photos to enhance student understanding and makes anatomical structures easier to visualize.
- NEW and REVISED exercises include a new filtration activity and an investigation of diffusion through living membranes of chicken eggs in Exercise 5A, an examination of shoulder actions in Exercise 13, using a new hand dynamometer for the BIOPAC® activity in Exercise 16A, estimating venous pressure in Exercise 33A, and updated procedures for measuring respiratory volumes using BIOPAC® equipment in Exercise 37A. Reduced detail enhances clarity in selected exercises and review sheets, such as moving the classification of bones from Exercise 9 to the review sheet for that exercise, altering the analysis of urine segments in Exercise 41, and simplifying Exercise 46.

This best-selling, restructured laboratory manual now includes an updated interactive website built specifically for the A&P lab course. myA&P.com includes gradable pre- and post-lab exercise quizzes for each of the 46 labs in the Marieb lab manual that speak directly to the instructor’s gradebook, Practice Anatomy Lab 2.0 (PAL™) that provides students access 24/7 to a rich array of anatomy lab specimens, practice quizzes, and simulated lab practicals, 3D Anatomy Animations with quizzes that speak to the gradebook, and the new PhysioEx™ 8.0 that includes videos of lab experiments.
New co-author Susan Mitchell has teamed up with Elaine Marieb to refine, restructure, and refresh a wide variety of beautifully illustrated activities that help students visualize and understand key anatomical structures and physiological concepts. Designed for use with any A&P textbook, the latest edition of the lab manual also features exercise review sheets that are now integrated at the end of each lab, new perforated pages for convenience in tearing out review sheets, pared-down activities that make lab time more manageable, dozens of new photos and photomicrographs that dramatically clarify the contrasts among structures, and a new PhysioEx 8.0 CD-ROM with seven videos of lab experiments.
For Elaine N. Marieb, taking the student's perspective into account has always been an integral part of her teaching style. Dr. Marieb began her teaching career at Springfield College, where she taught anatomy and physiology to physical education majors. She then joined the faculty of the Biological Science Division of Holyoke Community College in 1969 after receiving her Ph.D. in zoology from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst.
While teaching at Holyoke Community College, where many of her students were pursuing nursing degrees, she developed a desire to better understand the relationship between the scientific study of the human body and the clinical aspects of the nursing practice. To that end, while continuing to teach full time, Dr. Marieb pursued her nursing education, which culminated in a Master of Science degree with a clinical specialization in gerontology from the University of Massachusetts. It is this experience, along with stories from the field - including those of former students, now in health careers - that has informed the development of the unique perspective and accessibility for which her texts and laboratory manuals are known.
In her ongoing commitment to students and her realization of the challenges they face, Dr. Marieb has given generously to provide opportunities for students to further their education. She contributes to the New Directions, New Careers Program at Holyoke Community College by providing several full-tuition scholarships each year for women returning to college after a hiatus or who are attending college for the first time and would otherwise be unable to continue with their studies without financial support. She funds the E. N. Marieb Science Research Awards at Mount Holyoke College, which promotes research by undergraduate science majors, and generously contributed to the University of Massachusetts at Amherst where she provided funding for reconstruction and instrumentation of a cutting-edge cytology research laboratory that bears her name.
In 1994, Dr. Marieb received the Benefactor Award from the National Council for Resource Development, American Association of Community Colleges, which recognizes her ongoing sponsorship of student scholarships, faculty teaching awards, and other academic contributions to Holyoke Community College. In May 2000, the science building at Holyoke Community College was named in her honor.
Additionally, while actively engaged as an author, Dr. Marieb serves as a consultant for the Benjamin Cummings InterActive Physiology® CD-ROM series, and is an active member of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS).
Susan J. Mitchell earned her Ph.D. in physiology from the University of Michigan. She studied the cellular basis of behavior before joining the faculty at Onondaga Community College where she is currently a professor in the Department of Biological Sciences. Her research in neurophysiology and training in physiology positioned her to write the original Nervous, Endocrine, and Digestive System modules in the InterActive Physiology® 9-System Suite tutorial program. She has been honored with a NISOD Excellence Award for teaching, and been awarded several grants to develop technological resources for biology at OCC. Dr. Mitchell is a member of the American Physiological Society, National Association of Biology Teachers, National Science Teachers Association, and the Human Anatomy and Physiological Society, where she is currently active on the Curriculum and Instruction Committee.
