Do any of you guys have recommendations for books that are hard enough for nationals?
Have you looked at actual textbooks (like, high-school or AP level) devoted to Anatomy & Physiology?

Other sources on the internet and this textbook I have say that caffeine suppresses adenosine, the neurotransmitter for drowsiness. Which is correct?
Adenosine binds to specific receptors on neural membranes, and causes a person to feel sleepy. But when you have caffeine, it binds to the adenosine receptors but doesn't cause drowsiness. Therefore you have fewer receptors for the adenosine to bind to, preventing you from feeling sleepy. I don't think caffeine has a direct affect on melatonin production, but I'm not completely sure. I think the effects of caffeine are most directly caused by how it interacts with adenosine. The training handout has incorrect information about a couple of other things so it might be wrong.
I think you are correct, I don't know of any effect caffeine has on melatonin production. Just xanthines such as adenosine

The systems are supposed to be Cardiovascular, Immune and Integumentary. I don't know if that will change or not.

Do we need to know cranial nerves for anatomy? Additionally, how much in depth do we have to go for the treatments of the diseases?
