Anatomy and Physiology Units of Study: Chapter Notes and Handouts

     The notes and handouts listed below are available for you to download, print out and bring to class. The powerpoint presentations are an outline of the discussion, lectures and labs to be completed during the school year. They are not stand alone materials. The readings in your textbook, the accompanying website and other supplementary materials should all be used in conjunction the chapter notes.
