Ascending Tract: The Posterior White Columns
By Barbara Liang
In this animated activity, learners view the pathways and functions of the fasciculus gracilis and the fasciculus cuneatus.
The Sense of Taste
In this interactive object, learners examine the structure and function of the sense of taste.
Cell Division
In this animated activity, learners examine the two major phases of cell division: mitosis and cytokinesis.
Professionalism
By Luci Gunderson
In this activity, you will learn various behaviors that do or do not relate to professional behaviors in the health care setting.
The Anatomy of the Heart
By Wendy Dusek
In this animated and interactive object, learners identify the valves and chambers of the heart.
Cardiac Markers
By Dennis Schmidt
Learners will examine how cardiac markers are used in the diagnosis of cardiac disease.
Identifying Eukaryotic Animal Cell Organelles
In this animated object, learners are introduced to the structure and function of animal cell organelles.
Construction of the Cell Membrane
By Becky Polk-Pohlman, Barbara Liang
In this learning activity you'll study the structure of the cell membrane and construct it using the correct molecules.
The Cell: Passive Transport Diffusion
In this animated object, learners view molecules as they collide and move between two different solutions. They also observe what happens when the temperature of the solutions is raised or lowered.
Muscle Cell Contraction
In this animated activity, learners examine muscle cell contraction and relaxation and consider the role of calcium ions.
The Cell: Passive Transport Osmosis
In this animated object, learners examine water molecules moving through a semipermeable membrane.
The Skeleton: Bones & Joints
By Robert Formanek
In this interactive object, learners review the major parts of the skeletal system by clicking on the correct term as each bone or joint is highlighted on a skeleton.
The Sense of Hearing (Screencast)
In this screencast, learners examine hearing and balance. Detailed drawings of the outer, middle, and inner ear structures are included.
Biomolecules - The Lipids
In this animated object, learners examine neutral fats, phospholipids, and cholesterol. The molecular formula and general function for each are shown.
Protein Synthesis
In this learning activity you'll review how every protein molecule of an organism is synthesized by that organism in a prescribed process. This activity helps students understand the fundamental life process of making protein.
The 12 Cranial Nerves
In this interactive and animated object, learners read a description of the number, name, and function of the cranial nerves. A matching quiz completes the activity.
Transport Processes Requiring ATP
In this animated object, students observe how ATP energy is used to move substances across the cell membrane from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher concentration and when something too large needs to get in or out of a cell.
An Overview of Pulmonary and Systemic Circulation
In this animated and interactive object, learners examine how blood flows through the heart and lungs. A brief quiz completes the activity.
Hematologic Cells and their Functions: Blood Cell Identification (Screencast)
By Carolyn Byom
This screencast will help the student identify normal blood cells and their functions. This will include the identification of red blood cells, five types of white blood cells, and platelets.
How to Use a Microscope
Learners examine the function of each part of a microscope and follow step-by-step instructions on how to focus on a specimen. They also review the proper use and care of a microscope and test their knowledge in two drag-and-drop exercises.
Biomolecules - The Proteins
In this animated object, learners read an introduction to protein structure and function.
The Stress Response
In this animated object, learners read a brief description of the roles of the hypothalamus, emotions, and adrenal secretions during the stress response.
The Neuromuscular Junction
In this animated object, learners examine the major events that occur at the neuromuscular junction.
Respiratory Basics
In this animated and interactive object, learners examine ventilation, external and internal respiration, and gas transport.
