Human Anatomy & Physiology
Elaine N. Marieb, Katja Hoehn · 11th Edition · ISBN 9780134580999 · Pearson
Complete chapter-by-chapter study guide aligned with Human Anatomy & Physiology (11th Edition). Includes summaries, learning objectives, and exam-style practice questions for all 29 chapters.
Overview
Marieb and Hoehn's Human Anatomy & Physiology (11th Edition) is the most widely assigned A&P text and a cornerstone course for nursing, allied health, and biology students. It moves system by system through the entire human body, starting with body organization, basic chemistry, cells, and tissues, then the integumentary, skeletal, and muscular systems. The nervous system unit covers nervous tissue, the central and peripheral nervous systems, the autonomic nervous system, and the special senses, followed by the endocrine system, blood, the cardiovascular and lymphatic systems, immunity, and the respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems, closing with fluid and electrolyte balance, pregnancy, and heredity. This study guide is built to match the textbook chapter for chapter, so you review in the same order your professor teaches and can master the structures and physiologic processes the course demands. It is an independent, aligned study guide — not the textbook and not a copy of it — focused on the high-yield structures, processes, and reasoning so you can review efficiently for the heavy memorization and concept load of A&P exams.
Aligned with two-semester human anatomy and physiology courses for nursing and allied health, with practice that mirrors the structure-identification and physiology questions tested on course exams.

A&P is memorization-heavy — how does this help?
The guide organizes the high-yield structures and physiologic processes system by system so you can review efficiently and focus your memorization where exams test it.
Is this useful for nursing prerequisites?
Yes. A&P is a core prerequisite for nursing programs, and this guide is built to help you master the material those courses and admissions exams expect.
Will it match my edition?
This guide is built around the 11th Edition. If your class uses a different edition, chapter numbering may shift slightly, but the topics and learning objectives are usually unchanged.
Do I still need the textbook?
The study guide is a companion, not a replacement — it helps you study efficiently and review fast, but you'll still want the textbook for full depth and any assigned readings. You can buy new, rent, or find a used copy through the price links on this page.
