man you should see my cheat sheet!!! it was a muscle diagram on both sides and then i just shoved like 1000 words everywhere else!!!
anyways why do we have to know so many muscles???????

It's not that many if you think about it. There are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY more. 50 muscles is NOTHING compared to the number of muscles there really are.

grrr i hate vertebrae. for some reason i have a lot more trouble with vertebrae than other bones. any tips?

[tclme elmo]

Like what specifically about the vertebrae? There's the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar. But I'm not sure what you want to know.

[anatomydude]

the parts of the vertebrae(i.e. posteriar tubercle, anterior arch, etc.).

the parts of the vertebrae(i.e. posteriar tubercle, anterior arch, etc.).

What helped me memorize the parts of the vertebrae were to try and visualize what other bones or muscles the parts were attached to.

For example, the Thoracic Vertebrae contain costal facets which is where the ribs connect. Looking at diagrams and becoming familiar with the different vertebrae shapes will also help, use these diagrams to study and maybe make blank copies so you can test yourself on how well you can identify different parts.

This is a great website for not only the vertebrae, but the rest of the skeleton.
It's easy to understand and talks about how to identify each vertebrae... enjoy!http://www.zoology.ubc.ca/~biomania/tut ... utline.htm

No you don't have to! Study for your finals instead!! That's more important! It's fine, I don't need it now!

I only need to study for Calculus and AP Government. I can do that during my AP Bio class because my teacher quit and now we have nothing to do for two hours. of the day.
