A dazzling display colorful computer-generated images, x-rays, and photographs create a comprehensive introduction to the skeletal system. With 12 slides in all, aspiring anatomists learn that there are 206 bones in the human body and how bones, joints, tendons, and ligaments both support the body and contribute to its movement. The focus is on the system rather than on individual bones. Have your class take notes as you progress through the slides, and then open the Test Yourself section and have them answer the questions together.
