Vertebrate Anatomy and Physiology for Veterinary Technician Students provides readers with a comprehensive exploration of body structural organization from the cellular level to the organization of tissues and membranes to full biological systems. The information equips students with the deep knowledge and understanding of contemporary veterinary science they need to become effective veterinary technicians.

Opening chapters provide students with a survey of vertebrates, homeostasis, organic compounds, cell structure, and more. Additional chapters cover the role of tissues in body organization, the integumentary system, the skeletal system, and joints. Students learn about muscles and the muscular system, muscle cells and physiology, and the nervous system. Special senses and sense organs are examined. All major systems are discussed, including the nervous, cardiovascular, immune, digestive, respiratory, urinary, and reproductive systems. Throughout, the in-text material is supported by essays that demonstrate the application of student knowledge to real-world veterinary practice.

Vertebrate Anatomy and Physiology for Veterinary Technician Students is a robust, all-inclusive, and essential resource for courses and programs in veterinary and zoological science.
