HOW TO STUDY FOR ANATOMY & PHYSIOLOGY

Have a psychological edge: Interest in the subject, belief in your ability to understand and retain knowledge, health and physical fitness. Studying is like a sport. You will either excel or be mediocre, depending on these three ingredients - physical and mental fitness, interest, and confidence. First and foremost, stay fit. Habitual partying is not staying mentally and physically fit. Secondly, you need a good measure of interest in the Form & Functions of the human body. If you are not awed by its bioengineering, it’s going to take more effort. Have faith in your ability to learn and recall volumes of information. With repeated exposure, your memory cells that store knowledge will undergo a transformation that retains knowledge as long term knowledge. When you are presented with an unfamiliar term, a memory cell for the definition is set up up in your brain cortex. When the anwer is revealed, it will lodge in the cell reserved for its lodging. Therefore, a sense of wonderment for this subject is absolutely important. Have faith on those memory cells and take care of them.

Do not be intimidated by the course’s massive content. Understand and be psychologically prepared that there is going to be a torrent of terms that sound other-worldly. It is understandable to be overwhelmed. Here is a strategy: on a busy day avoid the scattered-brain mode. Make a to do list, and move on through the day with a clear mind accomplishing each task one at a time. Likewise, take time to write down the terms presented (see DECODED! volumes, DIRECTORY). Be clear in your mind what you need to attack. In a word, take "The Pre-emptive Strike".

ENCOURAGEMENT FROM THE AUTHOR

The premise of this Anatomy & Physiology study guide is to forearm students for the coming barrage of unfamiliar terms. Understanding how a term is compounded from one or more Greek and Latin root(s) give students the rationale for and insight into the nature of the beast.

This book is a comprehensive collection of more than 1400 Greek and Latin Roots of more than 3500 Anatomy & Physiology Terms. Several terms are coined from one root. You will, therefore, become familiar with several terms just by being acquainted with one root.

Examples:

HEME- / HEMO- / HEMATO-

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hemo- / Hema- / Hemato- (comb prefix)

HEMARTHROSIS

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hema- / Hemo- / Hemato- (comb. prefix)

Arthros (Gr. n.), a joint, articulation; > Arthro- (comb. prefix)

-osis (comb. suffix), denotes pathological condition

HEMATOCRIT

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hema- / Hemo- / Hemato- (comb. prefix)

Criticus (n.; plu., Critici), assessment, judgement; > -crit (comb. suffix), short for Criticus

HEMATOMA

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hema- / Hemo- / Hemato- (comb. prefix)

-oma (comb. suffix), denotes abnormal tissue, tumor

HEMATOPOIESIS; HEMOPOIETIC (TISSUE)

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hema- / Hemo- / Hemato- (comb. prefix)

Poiesis (Gr. n.), formation, production, generation; > -poesis (comb. prefix), to make, to produce

HEMATURIA

Haima / Heme (Gr. n.), blood; > Hema- / Hemo- / Hemato- (comb. prefix)

Urea (Gr. der., Ouron, urine), bi-product of protein metabolism in urine; > -uria (comb. suffix), urine

The permutations of the roots to stems are indicated by (>). The TERMS are broken down into their root component(s). Thus, their morphology and concept are literally DECODED! This is the main feature of every entry. You will find this to be self-evident. The more you consult the root components, the easier learning becomes. The little extra time you take to be familiar with the root component(s) will reap benefits of lasting knowledge and easy recall.

The author considered the following titles for this companion book to the DECODED! Volumes: "Boot Camp and/or Basic Training" for Anatomy & Physiology Terms. The 3-year journey in the writing of this A&P study guides started with a small idea of developing an introductory seminars for incoming health majors. However, the author envisioned a guide that will benefit health majors beyond a fleeting seminar. Benefits can be had from these guides before (and after) the course. Therefore, the author deemed Pre-emptive strike fitting for the well-prepared, proactive health science student.

In the interest of completeness, mundane roots that are common in every day English usage are included with more esoteric roots. They are both fascinating, and you will gain more appreciation for Anatomy & Physiology. As you progress in the course your confidence will soar to carry you through the demanding academic years ahead.

May A&P Enlightenment be with you,

HOW TO USE THIS BOOK

Navigate for terms.The roots are presented immediately below the term(s). Voila! "Fiat A&P lux".

Do not be intimidated by the sheer volume of the collection of terms. During the academic years you may be required to be familiar and knowledgeable with a sizable number of terms and concepts. Familiarity will turn to knowledge, and knowledge to expertise. I recommend downloading the DECODED! Volumes for the ready-to-go to do lists of every section.

(Apologies: due to the navigational limitations of eBOOKS scrolling down the directory will be necessary.)
