A list of links to help you with your anatomy studies.

http://tinyurl.com/25wy This site is a truly great resource for anatomy students. It has all the major organ systems and lists, as well as shows, all the structures you could ever need to know. This would be a good study and review resource.


http://tinyurl.com/ebnyb A site containing basic diagrams and printouts of several anatomical systems and structures. The information is not extensive, but this would nevertheless be a good site to have for review purposes. 


http://tinyurl.com/4cvy4 This is another interactive site of various organs and organ systems, but is not as comprehensive. This would be best for high school biology students.


http://tinyurl.com/3loq7gp One of the best ways to prepare for exams is to constantly quiz yourself. This site has quizzes for the major body systems and is perfect for review and pre-testing (so you know which areas to concentrate on while studying).

http://tinyurl.com/cglkuj This is a more comprehensive interactive muscle site and would be best for college-level anatomy courses.


http://tinyurl.com/3m4xnas This is a personal favorite site of mine. It combines a comprehensive list of muscles with clear diagrams and information on origin, insertion, and action.
