I have been teaching Human Anatomy and Physiology at Central Arziona College (CAC) for 25 years. About 3 years ago, the Dean of Academics expressed concern over the cost of the text and lab book for our 2 semester A&P classes. I volunteered to lead an appointed committee to look into OER for anantomy and physiology. The Openstax textbook quickly became the choice of the committee members. After teaching a pilot class with the Openstax textbook, all CAC 2 semester A&P classes switched over to it. We have been using it for all our A& P classes, both on campus and online, for about 1.5 years. Student feedback has been very positive.

The kidneys are formed from the intermediate mesoderm. Firstly it begins to thicken longitudinally in its caudal domain. This is called the nephrogenic thickening. From this thickening three so called attempts at producing excretory origins arise. All the attempts have at the histological level a series of excretory tubules however only one of these attempts forms the kidney in adult life.

Sexual differentiaton by default follows a pathways for development of female internal and external genitalia, requiring no active intervention. Endocrine activity of the testes, production of Androgens by Leydig cells and Mullerian Inhibiting hormone (MIH) by Sertoli cells, is required for sexual differentiation to be diverted down the male genitalia development pathway.

The hypothalamus is inherently female. Testosterone 'defeminizes' the brain during embryogenesis and eliminates the GnRH surge centre in males. The female foetus has no testes to produce testosterone, thus developes a hypothalamic GnRH surge centre.

This open textbook is adapted from OpenStax’s Anatomy and Physiology for Carmen Bott’s KINS 1100 (Biodynamics of Physical Activity) class at Langara College. Sections have been omitted from the original textbook to reflect the KINS 1100 curriculum, but the content is otherwise unchanged.

These lecture slides contain images as well as some conceptual explanations and lecture outlines.

During recent years the phenomenon of Boko Haram has dominated policy debates among academics and policymakers interested in African and Nigerian politics. Yet, many issues about the sect remain unclear and contested. This collection of articles on Boko Haram by selected experts is essential reading for those interested in Nigeria, and the broader issues of state building, terrorism, humanitarian emergencies, conflict resolution and intrastate violence.
