• Spotlight Figures are visual 1- and 2-page presentations of tough topics with a focus on physiology and combine brief text with related figures and photos to communicate information in a visually effective format.
• Build Your Knowledge boxes and Integration Figures coach students through physiology, referring back to previously learned concepts before introducing new information.
• Clinical Notes expand upon topics just discussed, present diseases and pathologies with their relationship to normal function, and relate directly to what students will encounter in future careers.
• Side-by-Side Figures provide multiple views of the same structure, typically pairing an illustrator's rendering with a photo of the actual structure from the laboratory or operating room.

Mastering A&P is not included. Students, if Mastering A&P is a recommended/mandatory component of the course, please ask your instructor for the correct ISBN. Mastering A&P should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.

• 10 Spotlight Videos provide a narrated, annotated, and visually appealing encapsulation of key concepts. Based on one of the most popular features in the book, students can access each video in the Mastering A&P Study Area or etext, and instructors can assign the videos in Mastering A&P. Spotlight Videos include:
  • Inflammation and Regeneration
  • Synovial Joints
  • The Contraction Cycle
  • Refractive Problems
  • The Composition of Whole Blood
  • The Heart: Internal Anatomy and Blood Flow
  • Pulmonary Ventilation
  • Chemical Events in Digestion
  • A Summary of Kidney Function
  • Regulation of Female Reproduction
• 11 Build Your Knowledge Interactives focus on how the body systems work together to maintain homeostasis. Adapted from the end of chapter Build Your Knowledge Integration features in the text, Interactives can be manipulated by the students to explore the interrelationships of body systems.
• Pearson eText is a simple-to-use, mobile-optimized, personalized reading experience available within Mastering. It allows students to easily highlight, take notes, and review key vocabulary all in one place–even when offline.
• Updated - Practice Anatomy LabTM (PALTM 3.1) is now accessible and available on all mobile devices. PAL 3.1 is an indispensable virtual anatomy study and practice tool that gives students 24/7 access to the most widely used lab specimens including human cadavers, anatomical models, histology, cats, and fetal pigs. PAL 3.1 also includes multiple-choice quizzes and practice fill-in-the-blank lab practicals.
• Customizable Practice Anatomy Lab (PAL) Flashcards allow students to create a personalized, mobile-friendly deck of flashcards and quizzes using images from PAL or using only the structures the instructor emphasizes in lecture or lab.
• Expanded - Mobile-ready Interactive Physiology 2.0 tutorials teach students complex physiology processes using exceptionally clear animations, interactive tutorials, games, and quizzes. IP 2.0 features new graphics, quicker navigation, and are mobile-friendly for learning on the go. New topics include Excitation-Contraction Coupling and Glomerular Filtration.

Updated - PhysioExTM 10.0 Laboratory Simulations in Physiology provide newly formatted exercises in HTML for increased stability, web browser flexibility, and improved accessibility. The suite of more than 60 easy-to-use laboratory simulation activities complement or replace wet labs, including those that are expensive or time-consuming to perform in class.
