Exploring Anatomy & Physiology in the Laboratory, 4th Edition, by Erin C. Amerman, provides structured laboratory exercises for students enrolled in a two-semester anatomy and physiology laboratory course. Published by Morton Publishing Company in 2022, this laboratory manual utilizes an activity-based approach for student learning inside the laboratory setting.

The content addresses both structural organization and biological mechanisms across the academic term. Early laboratory units focus on chemical principles and enzyme activity, which lead into the microscopic examination of histology and human tissues. Later units examine the gross anatomy of the muscular system together with the microanatomy and physiology of muscle tissue.

To reinforce connections between anatomical features and body functions, the manual incorporates specialized Tracing Exercises. These guided activities prompt students to outline step-by-step pathways of various substances through the human body, providing targeted practice for students completing the full two-semester course.
