Anatomy & Physiology Beta

Anatomy & physiology that builds in order.

Every idea is taught before it is used. Physiology is taught as mechanism: what causes what, step by step. Practice sits inside the reading.

What the course covers

27 chapters and 162 topics: the full scope of a two-semester college A&P course, matched to the OpenStax Anatomy and Physiology 2e textbook, the HAPS learning outcomes and the TEAS 7 A&P content areas. Each topic has an interactive lesson and a full notes page.

In this Beta, 49 topics are built: Foundations and the cardiovascular system. The rest are listed so you can see where everything fits; they arrive chapter by chapter.

How to use it

  1. Read the lesson. It opens with a patient, checks what you need first, then walks the mechanism one cause at a time.
  2. Answer as you go. Anything you miss goes into your review queue and comes back when you are about to forget it.
  3. Use the tools. Predict what changes, build feedback loops, trace pathways, read graphs and practice for lab practicals.
  4. Check your mastery. Your dashboard shows your weakest topics and core concepts, and what to do next.
