Anatomy & Physiology: An Immersive 3D Experience
Anatomy & Physiology is an educational app developed by Argosy Publishing for iPhone users. With this app, students can immerse themselves in a 3D experience to learn about the human body. The app offers 12 units with 50 chapters/modules that use over 500 preset views of 3D models, more than 150 illustrations and animations, dozens of histology slides, and hundreds of quiz questions.
The app allows students to zoom in and rotate the anatomical models to see how nerves exit the spinal cord and their relationship to the vertebrae. Students can also study the branches of the cranial nerves or the microanatomy of the eye from all perspectives. The app also includes a 50-second 3D animation that explains the physiology of muscle contractions. Students can customize the app and track their learning by creating a library of Favorites with 3D models, illustrations, animations, and notes that they need to review. They can also access a question-by-question assessment of quiz performance to track their understanding of the concepts.
