  • Shirtless muscular man flexing his bicep. Caption: When the muscle fibers fire and contract,

    Investigates the major body systems that are important during physical activity: the skeletal, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, and nervous systems. Examines each of these systems, their parts, their functions, and how they work. Also, explores the contribution and interaction of the systems when we exercise and while we are rest.

  • Person standing and holding a small object in their hand while facing a person who is sitting. Caption: in the patient's neck created by the laryngectomy.

    Speech, your means of communication, is the medium for exchanging ideas and expressing both pleasure and pain. Examines the physiology of speech by looking at humans' vocal tracts. Shows how the larynx, vocal chords, wind pipe, tongue, and lips produce the sounds of speech. Also, looks at the ability to understand speech by explaining why your ears and brain can discern the subtle nuances of rapid sounds.

  • Ant Bodies

    • Video
    A close up of an ant. Caption: Attached to the thorax are the ant's six legs.

    Talks about ant anatomy. Explains that not all species look alike, but they all share the same basic characteristic of having three functional body segments: head, thorax, abdomen. Describes body parts and functions of each segment. Discusses how various species of ants from Africa, South America, and Australia have adapted to their surroundings over time.

  • The Eye

    • Video
    Closeup of the human eye with lines demonstrating how lights is refracted when it hits the lens. Caption: It behaves like a convex lens, bending or refracting light rays

    The eye is one of each human's major sense organs. It gathers light information and transforms it into a signal that is used by the brain to formulate an appropriate response. How does this process work? What are the structures involved, and what do they do? These questions are answered using a unique, integrated approach that combines the anatomy and function of the eye. Includes detailed footage of the dissection of the bovine eye.
