A Dissection Guide & Atlas to the Rat

This full-color dissection manual is intended to provide an introduction to the anatomy of the mink for biology, zoology, nursing, or preprofessional students who are taking a laboratory course in anatomy and physiology or basic vertebrate anatomy. Features: • Multiple images of the muscle, skeletal, and organ systems provide a complete picture of the layers of mink anatomy. • Detailed instructions allow students to efficiently and accurately perform all of the dissections. • Superior quality, completely labeled, full-color photographs and illustrations offer excellent visual references. • The text is clearly written, and dissection instructions are set apart in boxes to aid the students in the lab. • Informative tables summarize key information, and student objectives establish the purpose of each chapter and lab. • The dissection guide is loose-leaf and three-hole drilled for convenience in the laboratory. • Because prepared mink skeletons are not always available, the cat skeleton is utilized in the skeletal system chapter along with pictures of mink structures, as appropriate.
