muscle animations for the future:

Here's a couple of good muscle animations that will help us soon:

One showing how the nerve communicates with the muscle.

Another site showing how the myosin and actin slide over eachother.  This is pretty detailed, but it nicely shows the process.

Here's a couple of sites to help you review bones of the day:

1.  This is the site I used in class for closer looks at small bones like the tarsals, carpals, etc...

2.  This site reviews the entire skeleton with some built in quizzes. 

hip replacement

Check out this interactive hip replacement simulation.  Its pretty cool!  Be sure to do this before our test on skeletal.

Histology site

Here's a nice site to help you review the histology slides

Tattoo articles

Yes, a tattoo on the eye lids!!!  Ouch.

Class,

I'd like you to read these articles on skin tattooing.

The first is a general information article about what it is all about.  Very helpful

Here's a cool short article about a medically important tattoo that may become very popular in the future.
