Users select a bone from the list of four bone types on the skeletal image, and launch the bone viewer. A detailed look at each bone from six viewing angle options is provided along with the option to select another bone or make a comparison with another species (chimpanzee or baboon). The Comparative Anatomy section enables users to make direct comparisons of bones. The material is appropriate for science teacher education as it illustrates how careful observation leads one to wonder about the dizzying beauty of a planet that works by bringing us one different creature after another. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=84051 Key biological concepts animated as narrated and stepped tutorials, along with quizzes. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=86208 Interactive multimedia and simulations content in Shockwave/Flash on human physiology with extra topics in anatomy and neuroanatomy. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=89302 Detailed descriptions of human systems and human physiology including system models for identification and labeling. Web anatomy An easy-to-use activity to help entry-level anatomy students. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=75449 This website includes multiple animations that illustrate several complex processes in human cardiovascular development. Designed as a tool for medical students, this site is also very helpful as a review for other health science individuals. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=90963 A training simulator for medical students designed to show the effects of damage to different eye muscles and nerves on the motion of the eyes. Uses shokwave to simulate the movement of a patients eyes during an eye exam, instead of trying to follow the doctors finger the eyes follow the mouse pointer on screen.. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=83723 A tutorial with flash animations on the human systems; part of the Get Body Smart web site (by ConceptCreators, Inc.) called "An Online Examination Human Anatomy and Physiology." Includes skeletal system, musclular system, muscle tissue physiology, nervous system, circulatory system, respiratory system, urinary system, and histology. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=90965 In this simulation you examine three patients with heart trouble using various diagnostic devices plus interviews with the patients to diagnose the problem with their cardiac system. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=78511 HyperHeart is an interactive animation/movie developed for Dr. Blumenthal’s pharmacology course detailing bloodflow, aortic/ventricular volumes and pressures present in a normal cardiac cycle. Also included are an electrocardiogram and heart sounds graph. Tutorials are provided for each phase of the cycle and interactive functions such as frame-by frame viewing, high/low quality toggle for faster playback, and a pop-up-menu to select the phase tutorials can all be utilized within the animation itself. http://www.merlot.org/merlot/viewMaterial.htm?id=78489 Easy-to-use site with 18 autopsy cases created as part of a medical informatics module. Each case provides H&P, links to pertinent test/lab results, brief report of patient's care until death, and interactive cadaver which organizes color photographs of body tissues/organs and a brief synopsis of results by body system. Each case also allows the user to select from possible causes of death and provides feedback on incorrect/correct choices. The site also contains case-relevant A&P mini-tutorials by body system.
