The Learning Tools Flashcards for human anatomy and physiology allow you to quiz yourself on important concepts you may be learning in class. The flashcards can help you review gross anatomy topics, like bones, joints, anatomical structure terms, muscles, and organs. They also cover injuries and disorders, including heart injuries, respiratory injuries, immune systems disorders, and many more. Also included are human anatomy and physiology review flashcards that focus on the nervous system, lymphatic system, reproductive systems, sensory organs, and other important topics you will need to know for your class.

Another Learning Tool you should take advantage of is the free flashcards maker. You can use it to create your own flashcards that you can then save and practice anytime you have your tablet or smartphone handy in the future, just like the ready-made flashcards. To begin using the flashcards builder, simply click on the “Create Tests & Flashcards” icon. You then give your new deck of flashcards a name, and next, you will be provided with blank flashcards templates you can enter your own human anatomy and physiology questions and answers into.

While you can always make up your own human anatomy and physiology questions to enter into the blank templates, you can also enter questions that appeared on past tests and quizzes, homework assignments, or practice tests in your textbook. Once you enter questions into the flashcards maker from the study materials you use to study at home or in your dorm, you can then stop lugging around your other bulky study materials, especially that heavy textbook, when you don't need them for class.

When making your new flashcards, be sure to take advantage of the blank fields you are given to explain why the answers are correct. If you have created your own acronyms and other hints that help you remember what you need to learn in class, entering them into this field is a great way to help you remember them to use later, too!
