Anatomy & Physiology Flashcards
Anatomy and physiology cover a lot of ground: every major body system, how its parts are structured, and how they function together to keep the body running. This deck moves through that material system by system, from integumentary and skeletal through cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive.
Each card pairs a structure or process with a short clinical note explaining why it matters in patient care, so the anatomy stays connected to how it's actually used in nursing.
