If y'all are taking A&P in college anytime soon, take thorough notes on each of these lessons before you even take the class. I just took my final and finished the course with an A while the class average was a C-. It so important to have a basic knowledge of the material before even the first lesson.

I took anatomy last year and I learned nothing because my teacher sucked. Now I'm going to spend my free time watching these videos and taking notes to learn anatomy so I can be a successful nurse. So thank you.
This video got me thinking. And not about the topic, but about how a small team of people can better educate over half a million people, using a relatively low budget, in a short time frame and in a less monotonous and entertaining way than a teacher, who has years of training, and the entire school year to educate only twenty or so.
interesting points ,if anyone else needs to find out about anatomy and physiology systems try Panlarko Anatomy Course Planner (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my mate got amazing success with it.
+Matt Cubed Education major here! One of the biggest factors that comes into play here is that Hank and John's largest asset is their entertainment value and the fact that they know how to appeal to large amounts of interested viewers. The format also allows much more flexibility than a high school classroom, in which teachers are hard pressed to plan and prepare daily lessons on top of a 40 hour work week spent administering them. Unfortunately, as I remember John pointing out in one of his many videos, youtube is a great place for information but not a fantastic means for education. The process of truly learning something is much more complex than simply watching a series of videos and "getting it", it involves remembering the majority of details surrounding the large network of information in place and being able to apply that information in practical ways. You must also remember that viewers of these programs want to learn, whereas students in schools don't have a choice in their education and are inherently less enthusiastic about it. Also, simply showing these videos to a group of students would not better educate them than actual classrooms because by only watching, students are not involved in their own learning. Imagine how many times you would have to watch these series over and over again before you understood all the terms, retained all the information, and mentally mapped out each complex process. Comprehensive understanding requires studying the knowledge and applying it to papers, projects, tests, etc. Long story short, we need our teachers, and crash course is an amazing supplement to education!
That is likely because of how your school systems and courses are designed. Our educational foundations in North America are screwed. Instead of teaching how to learn they just get you to memorize facts and details that have no real world applications, then wonder why so many youth leave high schools with no life skills or common sense and are unable to get by. There are many different types of learning and the only one they nurture in the modern scholastic environment are those which will pump out the banker/lawyer/accountant sort, which is but a small percentage of the population. The rest are left untaught and wanting as they couldn't learn the same way and were left behind. Those people end up in the low paying jobs or trades they had no interest in purely out of necessity, when really, they might be geniuses and/or artists of unseen caliber that could truly benefit society. No, instead they are left without even the simple tools needed to educate themselves. Even with all the information available to them they wouldn't know how to put it all together or how to remember it if they did. And if they ever wanted to improve later in life, they will likely be unable to afford it because of the cost of secondary eds. It's a system that is broken and desperately needs a reform to catch it up to the 21st century. Apologies for the rant, I am just sick of seeing friends and family, myself included, robbed of their education and struggling year after year to undo the damage done by their early schooling, all in an attempt to move forward in life and be able to learn new concepts uninhibited as we were meant to do.
"The Anatomy Coloring Book" It was about 10years ago, so I don't remember who put it together. I think there are a few of them out now, for different specialties :)
Who else from 2023 ?? I used to watch these in high school, I just finished medical school and showing this playlist to my sibling who is in high school. Dang time flies!!!! Love you Hank! Kick cancer’s butt!
This guy has so much knowledge on so many different facets of our existence whether it be chemistry, psychology or physiology and the list continues of course. Really impressive man
Sure only 47% have access to the internet. But they were referring to people who DO have access of the internet not using it to further their learning.
I'm glad my A&P professor recommended these videos. They've helped me so much is my first term of LPN school. I recommend them to other nursing students. It's a great tool and resource.

hi everyone ,if anyone else wants to uncover human anatomy made easy try Laophiaa Cranial Blueprint (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my neighbor got cool results with it.
Started watching these last night after an entire day of studying the beginning of my anatomy and physiology module for class. I actually started watching these because I didn't think I was remembering anything by just reading. But, I am very pleasantly surprised that I actually retained more than I thought I did, and learned so much more. I will be adding these videos as my study companion tool. Thank you so much for making these!
See it this way: millions upon millions of bacteria are trying to eat you, yet your immune system is strong enough that you just suffer some discomfort instead of being eaten wholesale.
A&P, Microbio, Chem..these courses aren’t hard so much as they squeeze in A LOT of information and yes unless toyr a genius you can’t just study one night before an exam. You just need to STUDY! I worked literally 8 hours a day on Chem, hours n hours of homework in that class just practice the equations over n over on over again, study and you’ll get that 4.0 in all these classes. That’s all the advice I can give and it got me the perfect grades in all of these classes and lab exams. I’ll admit it’s exhausting & takes serious work but when you get those grades back in they’re in the 90’s (high 90’s) it is EXHILARATING!!!
I just graduated high school this year, and I've realised that my passion in learning simply from fascination and curiosity is completely gone. I used to love all forms of history, biology, zoology, psychology, archeology etc, but because you are FORCED to learn to achieve some meaningless number, I've come to associate these subjects with stress and dread. I'm slowly coming out of that mindset, and have to contribute it to Crash Course, thanks guys!
I would like to say that these videos have gotten me through 4 years of college. Every time I feel that I need a refresher course I come back to crash courses and start from the top. I am taking the Hesi exam again this week for nursing school and theses videos have tremendously helped me.
I'm in my first semester of vet school, and while human anatomy varies from animal anatomy these series of videos is what is getting me an A in my physiology exams. I love watching them before class and being able to confidently answer any questions in class because the way the information in presented in crash course makes it very easy to understand and stick. I've recommended these videos to all of my peers and they also love them! I've even starting watching the other videos from crash course on psychology and world history because they're just so fun to watch! Thank you for making learning all this heavy material so much easier!
Considering going into nursing and I don't have the prerequisites, so I wanted to check this out first before registering for a course. It's been over a decade since I was in college, but this was really helpful. He's clear and concise packing so much information in about 11 minutes. This is to all the career-changers out there! Keep learning :)
I just took A&P 1, but this still helps. I need to take an entrance exam at the end of May for nursing school. Looking forward to more videos to review!

LOOK, I DON'T WANT ANY TROUBLE JUST PUT DOWN THE- ooooh there goes his leg... ooooh there goes his head... OHHHH THERE GOES HIS D***. WHY WERE YOU AIMING FOR THAT. IT MAKES NO SE- why are you looking at me like that... no, I don't need emergency surgery.. no... NO... NO... NURSE! SCALPEL! NURSE SCALPEL! NUR- augubuluAHGhaublelllllllll....
I'm not in college, middle school or becoming a doctor. Just love learning about Anatomy and Physiology its so fascinating I mean after all its our bodies and we only have it for a short time! Bringing humor into the subject is a game changer easy to remember and I won't fall asleep ha ha
Good for you, kid. You are going beyond expectations. When you are younger(before being a teen) your brain is malleable, changeable. You are at the perfect age to study like crazy, and your brain will soak knowledge up like a sponge. Just remember: no matter where life takes you, with the right attitude you can do anything.
I used Crash Course in 2013 to study Biology in grade 12 and now in 2015, I get to use it for Anatomy in university! I'm so happy you keep up with this channel and my grades appreciate it too :)

There are several factors in studying human anatomy. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Anatomy Blueprint Pro (google it if you're interested) definately the most incredible course i've seen. look at this amazing site.
I cannot thank the crash course team enough for this whole anatomy and physiology series, I used almost every video to help me revise for my biomedical degree and it helped a lot! visualising each system was so much more interesting than just learning it from books. Hank you are awesome and so is the animation team thank you so much guys!
Sequence Jackson why do nurses get so much hype but us Medical students or preMedical students and doctors don’t when we do harder work and a lot more work and really can do our jobs alone 🤷🏽♀️ like we deserve more credit!
I have followed the Green brothers since I was a kid back in the early days of TH-cam. I am now studying to qualify for nursing school--eventually hoping to get my MSN. You guys have helped me through each step of the way. From Psychology to AP Western Civilization to Anatomy and Physiology! Thank you guys!
It seems like I could give the surgeon directions that are equally exact by saying, "It's behind the heart, but in front of the spine, and below the collarbone, but above the stomach. I wonder why we felt the need to invent new terms when we already had synonyms... they must stemmed from Greek/Latin, and we just stuck with them in the medical world.
So that even when you move to another country the surgeon there could understand it: proximal from cardia, distal oesophagus etc. In medicine a universal language makes it easier to communicate between different parts of the world (or even for foreign students/doctors).
I think you are right about the terms just sticking around from Latin/Greek. But it is useful to agree on the body (of the patient) as a frame of reference as opposed to the doctor, and I think it can be useful to use different words than common language. For example, if you are lying down on your belly, what would be 'above' your stomach?
A lot of those words are used in different contexts and with different meanings. It just seemed easier to use new words so that once learned, there is no doubt of their meaning.
I think they are more precise to doctors. ;) I'm French so it's less strange for me since I think these terms are more used in the usual day. Also 80% of the English terms used in advanced fields comes from French, thus Latin. These are not "invented terms". ^-^
Istvan Kleijn You make a good point, I can see the use of having terms that are so explicit. However, if we're going to create a convention with entirely new words, surely we could simply just create a convention for orientation right? In this case, the convention would be using the "Anatomical Position", just as we already do. The head would be "Up" (Superior), the toes "Down" (inferior). The stomach would be "Front", and the rear would be "Back". We never use our current medical terms in relational the body's current orientation, only in reference to the Anatomical Position, right? Now I'm not saying we should remake the conventions, I just think that the way things turned out is interesting.
I just want to say thankyou for all your very very helpful videos ! I started watching them as soon as I seen my grade was dropping in A&P and every chapter my professor would go over in lecture I would listen and take notes of course , but then I would come home and watch your videos and take more notes on flash cards and I'm proud to say if it wasn't for your videos I probably wouldn't have passed A&P 😁🙌🏼 soo happy ! Anybody who sees this comment I'm being very honest his videos are so very helpful and will help you understand in a more simpler way ☺️
Bellissima Kaylan thank you for your feedback! was looking through the comment section to see if his videos actually helped before i subscribed. taking A&P for fall and im a little nervous about it bc i heard its hard. but in high school i was told chemistry was going to be hard and i ended up falling in love with it and doing great on it! hope thats going to be the case with A&P. thank you stranger!
college anatomy and med school anatomy are two completely different beasts... Maybe you'll learn more than your college professor is what you meant. But, med school is pretty much the top of the top man.
Oh my goodness! I am taking A&P 1 after having been out of college 20 something years, and am having a horribly hard time understanding and learning the material. Thanks so much for videos like these. It makes the material much easier to understand!
Zoe Kouf we are not more than atoms, even consciousness is just the result of the interplay of atoms, so yeah, the entire universe is just one HUUUGE enormous conglomeration of atoms
every time we have a test in human anatomy we watch one of these videos on the next system! It's insane to see that there's so much in each system of the body
I'm not even studying anatomy in college and stuff, but I wrote down some notes on what I just watched because it was so interesting. I want to learn more!!! It was fun learning this tbh!
As my future medical emphasis is Cognitive Neuroscience, this playlist and the psychology one are life savers I swear. Thank you so much for these videos!
I’m here because I chose a pre-nursing program at my community college to take all my pre-reqs in there (I just graduated hs) and am advance studying. I’m really nervous about my major 😫
I feel like Crash Course knows my schedule. I start taking classes, and then they show up on Crash Course. I've been taking this one for a semester, but I'm sure there will be a collection of episodes built up by the time end of year finals roll around.
Ieva Igaunaitė Hi i love your video especially your advice related to anatomy and physiology. i also found some useful on anatomy and biology is Grathaw Simple Anatomy Expert-just goggle it.
Ieva Igaunaitė hey , nice video , to study more about human anatomy and physiology course try "Grathaw Simple Anatomy Expert" - search it on google . it is useful .
I was telling someone last year that it would be great if the guy from Mental Floss could record my anatomy, pathology, kinesiology and physiology...Then last week, I found this. :)
I withdrew from my Intro to anatomy and physiology course this summer and I am going to take it again August for 16 weeks online. The thing that set me back was I had a negative mindset and I didn't believe in myself. And I didn't put in the time or effort to study for the class. I will be ready next month and I will do the best I can to think more positive and not give up when things gets hard. Because I want to become a nurse. I am going to pass Intro to anatomy and physiology before the end of this year. I hope watching theses videos helps me.
Hey! I am from Russia and I watch your vids to improve my English. The 1st 10 or 20 were too hard 4 me, cuz u speak too fast, but now I can hear almost everything that u tell us. Btw, I study at the medical university, and I already know this stuff, but this's interesting 4 me to hear familiar medical words in English. Thank u very much for what u've done.
Homeo- meaning 'same' or 'similar' Stasis- meaning 'stable' and/or 'balanced' Homeostasis- "any process that living things use to actively maintain fairly stable conditions necessary for survival."
Looking forward to this. I would quibble about the comment about "the body you call home"; there's no "you" riding around inside your body, you ARE your body. But still, yay for new Crash Course!
Eh, I would argue that Hank was correct. Because, technically, you are just your brain (and spinal cord) so the rest is just a meat case to protect you... so yes, it is possible to argue that you are riding in your body... but it is really just semantics and there is no real right or wrong answer. Just at how you look at it.
Istvan Kleijn How so? Sure, some aspects of you would be the same, even most. But your experience of the world would change. You would no longer sense things with that arm. You might be a very similar person, but not the same.
ellock1998 But we aren't just a central nervous system. What would a CNS do without a body? How would it experience the world? One can just as easily say that the brain and spinal cord are just there to do the computation work and message carrying for the rest of the body. The truth seems to be that you are not your brain, nor are you your mind. You are your body, of which your brain is one part, and from which your mind arises.
I'm actually feeling depressed and useless seeing people my age have already reached something so I decided to come here and learn something that could help me in the future
Some of the best archive of medical insights. That's what people need. To read a book it takes 2 years but something like this is worthwhile to get know most within exam and learn more. Thanks. Know your sense and this gives it all.
After watching this video I first got mad at all of my teachers from elementary to highschool then started thinking about my child and how I wouldn't like the same thing to happen to him/her ( go to school and learn nothing when it's really interesting and important ) and I came to the conclusion that I would try to convince my friend's kids to group them together and let them watch these courses. Your channel has the best teachers out there
Watching this 8 years on, past Hank is giving me uncanny valley vibes. Its like Hank but... not. All kidding aside Crash Course is incredible- I've got some mystery health stuff happening so decided to learn about medicine but was overwhelemed, then I thought to check for a Crash Course, and you guys came through as always! This one video has already helped me understand what the hell specialists are on about!

LOOK, I DON'T WANT ANY TROUBLE JUST PUT DOWN THE- ooooh there goes his leg... ooooh there goes his head... OHHHH THERE GOES HIS D***. WHY WERE YOU AIMING FOR THAT. IT MAKES NO SE- why are you looking at me like that... no, I don't need emergency surgery.. no... NO... NO... NURSE! SCALPEL! NURSE SCALPEL! NUR- augubuluAHGhaublelllllllll....
I'm not in college, middle school or becoming a doctor. Just love learning about Anatomy and Physiology its so fascinating I mean after all its our bodies and we only have it for a short time! Bringing humor into the subject is a game changer easy to remember and I won't fall asleep ha ha
This playlist got me through college, thank y'all so much
I'm a 9 year old boy trying too learn as much as I can I hope soon I will be able too become a nuclear scientist
Good for you, kid. You are going beyond expectations. When you are younger(before being a teen) your brain is malleable, changeable. You are at the perfect age to study like crazy, and your brain will soak knowledge up like a sponge. Just remember: no matter where life takes you, with the right attitude you can do anything.
this is so cute ! i hope you're doing well and still pursuing your interests
Kid, if you are doing that, you are awesome and keep at it.
Good for you, kiddo!!
Kiddo, learn some grammar first. It's to, not too.
I am an Anatomy student in Namibia Africa and thanks to this lesson. I am well on my way to understanding Anatomy and Physiology. Thank you
this is what should be on TV, not the dumb reality shows we have now
pbs
Leasha Long i enjoy reality lol. they should have this on tv. dont take away my fun lol
Brooke Melt0n right if everyone smart I’m out of a job 😂
If it was on TV, they would just flip past it to the reality channel
If this was a T.V. show, HECK I'd watch it every night and become a HECKING surgeon
I used Crash Course in 2013 to study Biology in grade 12 and now in 2015, I get to use it for Anatomy in university! I'm so happy you keep up with this channel and my grades appreciate it too :)

Thanks!
I have a incredible respect for your channel. Your video been playing every days of the last 6 month lol.
I learned so much from you folks ...
I've been studying human anatomy and discovered an awesome website at Sebs Study Crammer (check it out on google)
There are several factors in studying human anatomy. One place I discovered that successfully combines these is the Anatomy Blueprint Pro (google it if you're interested) definately the most incredible course i've seen. look at this amazing site.
*Award winning course previously only sold to medical professionals. **humananatomycoursee.blogspot.com** >>*

I cannot thank the crash course team enough for this whole anatomy and physiology series, I used almost every video to help me revise for my biomedical degree and it helped a lot! visualising each system was so much more interesting than just learning it from books. Hank you are awesome and so is the animation team thank you so much guys!
I watched this for high school anatomy now for college Registered Nurse here I come ❤️ thanks so much for this Chanel!
you guys should do nursing school videos!! I watched these for my anatomy and biology classes (4 courses total) and I got A's in all of them!!!
Im just gonna say it like everybody else said it, This guy is gonna help us get through medical school🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏼🙏🏼 Anybody with me on that??😉😉😁
Sequence Jackson why do nurses get so much hype but us Medical students or preMedical students and doctors don’t when we do harder work and a lot more work and really can do our jobs alone 🤷🏽♀️ like we deserve more credit!
I have followed the Green brothers since I was a kid back in the early days of TH-cam. I am now studying to qualify for nursing school--eventually hoping to get my MSN. You guys have helped me through each step of the way. From Psychology to AP Western Civilization to Anatomy and Physiology! Thank you guys!
Should've watched these for my college anatomy class. Much better than in the classroom, imo.
It seems like I could give the surgeon directions that are equally exact by saying, "It's behind the heart, but in front of the spine, and below the collarbone, but above the stomach. I wonder why we felt the need to invent new terms when we already had synonyms... they must stemmed from Greek/Latin, and we just stuck with them in the medical world.
So that even when you move to another country the surgeon there could understand it: proximal from cardia, distal oesophagus etc. In medicine a universal language makes it easier to communicate between different parts of the world (or even for foreign students/doctors).
I think you are right about the terms just sticking around from Latin/Greek. But it is useful to agree on the body (of the patient) as a frame of reference as opposed to the doctor, and I think it can be useful to use different words than common language. For example, if you are lying down on your belly, what would be 'above' your stomach?
A lot of those words are used in different contexts and with different meanings. It just seemed easier to use new words so that once learned, there is no doubt of their meaning.
I think they are more precise to doctors. ;)
I'm French so it's less strange for me since I think these terms are more used in the usual day. Also 80% of the English terms used in advanced fields comes from French, thus Latin. These are not "invented terms". ^-^
Istvan Kleijn
You make a good point, I can see the use of having terms that are so explicit. However, if we're going to create a convention with entirely new words, surely we could simply just create a convention for orientation right?
In this case, the convention would be using the "Anatomical Position", just as we already do. The head would be "Up" (Superior), the toes "Down" (inferior). The stomach would be "Front", and the rear would be "Back". We never use our current medical terms in relational the body's current orientation, only in reference to the Anatomical Position, right?
Now I'm not saying we should remake the conventions, I just think that the way things turned out is interesting.
Going to pre-medical school in January and starting with this. Hope this will be a good foundation Hank from 10 years ago!
who else is a bored person stuck under quarantine, found this on youtube, and ended up learning something?
my exact position! :)
Prepping for my Summer Course, 'cause why not? lol!
Me, but I also want to study anatomy so I won’t have to struggle in high school or college, and maybe because of anime..
Same and my mom keeps bugging me to study
mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell
Josh Dun never talked about current events
Josh Dun instead i studied the old american west
this made me shoot hot cheetos out of my nose
MITOCHONDRIHANNA
I imagine my 7th grade teacher saying this 😂😂
I was studying this part for about an hour (textbook) but he literally made me understand the lesson w/in 11 mins. hands down!!
Who else is a nursing student?
ME! LOL
Yesssiirrrrrr😂😂
RIGHT HERE FIRST DAY
🤚🏻
HELLP
He is my current most favorite person on TH-cam. Saving me time
This channel has always been the reason why I started loving subjects or topics that I never thought I'd love
I just want to say thankyou for all your very very helpful videos ! I started watching them as soon as I seen my grade was dropping in A&P and every chapter my professor would go over in lecture I would listen and take notes of course , but then I would come home and watch your videos and take more notes on flash cards and I'm proud to say if it wasn't for your videos I probably wouldn't have passed A&P 😁🙌🏼 soo happy ! Anybody who sees this comment I'm being very honest his videos are so very helpful and will help you understand in a more simpler way ☺️
Bellissima Kaylan thank you for your feedback! was looking through the comment section to see if his videos actually helped before i subscribed. taking A&P for fall and im a little nervous about it bc i heard its hard. but in high school i was told chemistry was going to be hard and i ended up falling in love with it and doing great on it! hope thats going to be the case with A&P. thank you stranger!
You'll be just fine girl don't worry I found A&P very interesting and fun!!
Thank you for your comment!!! I hope this works out for me
If there's one thing bad about crash course is that it made me want to self study with Hank and just skip school XD iloveyou!!!
I am a Vet Tech student in Anatomy and Physiology, so this is great!
Let me watch this entire series in order to learn a years worth of medical school in a fortnight
Damn, I hope you never treat me or anyone I know...
trust me i will only sit inside my room posting comments like this
college anatomy and med school anatomy are two completely different beasts... Maybe you'll learn more than your college professor is what you meant. But, med school is pretty much the top of the top man.
in a FORTNITE
Nah I mean IN FORTNITE
Did you know that the average human body contains enough bones to make up an entire human skeleton
Oh My GOD. This ... Blew.... my..... MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@uvraged9854 you are a explosion
Man I never knew this
*gasp really?
Haha yup 206 to be exact : )
Oh my goodness! I am taking A&P 1 after having been out of college 20 something years, and am having a horribly hard time understanding and learning the material. Thanks so much for videos like these. It makes the material much easier to understand!
so we are basically atoms studying atoms....
yes
maybe other atoms study us ??????
That's equivalent to saying paper is a tree or a leaf so we're writing on a tree or a sheet of leaf. No, we're writing on paper
Zoe Kouf we are not more than atoms, even consciousness is just the result of the interplay of atoms, so yeah, the entire universe is just one HUUUGE enormous conglomeration of atoms
Clarity I'm mind blown honestly!
every time we have a test in human anatomy we watch one of these videos on the next system!
It's insane to see that there's so much in each system of the body
I'm not even studying anatomy in college and stuff, but I wrote down some notes on what I just watched because it was so interesting. I want to learn more!!! It was fun learning this tbh!
As my future medical emphasis is Cognitive Neuroscience, this playlist and the psychology one are life savers I swear. Thank you so much for these videos!
I’m here because I chose a pre-nursing program at my community college to take all my pre-reqs in there (I just graduated hs) and am advance studying. I’m really nervous about my major 😫
Back in 2018, i watched this whole course as an additional material for my licensure exams. It helped.
I feel like Crash Course knows my schedule. I start taking classes, and then they show up on Crash Course. I've been taking this one for a semester, but I'm sure there will be a collection of episodes built up by the time end of year finals roll around.
I passed the Massage & Bodywork Licensing Exam today thanks to these videos! Thanks for all the help!
I loves how you make everything seems easier than my lecturer did...
Thought Café does an amazing job with the graphics. ☺️
They really do! We're always excited to see what fun things they come up with.
-Nicole
CrashCourse Aw shucks thanks!
Aren't they the best!
Love all of CrashCourse and Thought Café !
Keep up the great work!
Ieva Igaunaitė Hi i love your video especially your advice related to anatomy and physiology.
i also found some useful on anatomy and biology is Grathaw Simple Anatomy Expert-just goggle it.
Ieva Igaunaitė hey , nice video , to study more about human anatomy and physiology course try "Grathaw Simple Anatomy Expert" - search it on google . it is useful .
I was telling someone last year that it would be great if the guy from Mental Floss could record my anatomy, pathology, kinesiology and physiology...Then last week, I found this. :)
I withdrew from my Intro to anatomy and physiology course this summer and I am going to take it again August for 16 weeks online. The thing that set me back was I had a negative mindset and I didn't believe in myself. And I didn't put in the time or effort to study for the class. I will be ready next month and I will do the best I can to think more positive and not give up when things gets hard. Because I want to become a nurse. I am going to pass Intro to anatomy and physiology before the end of this year. I hope watching theses videos helps me.
Hey! I am from Russia and I watch your vids to improve my English. The 1st 10 or 20 were too hard 4 me, cuz u speak too fast, but now I can hear almost everything that u tell us.
Btw, I study at the medical university, and I already know this stuff, but this's interesting 4 me to hear familiar medical words in English.
Thank u very much for what u've done.
where would i be in life without ya bruh
YOU SAVED MEEEEE
Alisha Itty lol
Homeo- meaning 'same' or 'similar'
Stasis- meaning 'stable' and/or 'balanced'
Homeostasis- "any process that living things use to actively maintain fairly stable conditions necessary for survival."
i am a doctor now and... God i hope that this kind of content is available when i was in Med school. it's very helpful
Watched this channel like crazy to help my in Biology, now again helping me like crazy while taking A&P. Much appreciated.
im not due t take this course till fall but this allows me to get a head start. thank you.
Not me comming back here to watch because I have to take A&P again after 5 years! Thank goodness for crash course!!
Thank you for this, I'm a first year nursing student and this was a big help!!
This saved me for science olympiad bro, this man is great
Nice video, with detalied explanations in simple and comprehensible terms. This the ideal type of guy to learn from.
Looking forward to this. I would quibble about the comment about "the body you call home"; there's no "you" riding around inside your body, you ARE your body. But still, yay for new Crash Course!
Not sure if I would say I am my body. I think I would be the same me if I would lose an arm.
Eh, I would argue that Hank was correct. Because, technically, you are just your brain (and spinal cord) so the rest is just a meat case to protect you... so yes, it is possible to argue that you are riding in your body... but it is really just semantics and there is no real right or wrong answer. Just at how you look at it.
Istvan Kleijn Don't you think the loss of a limb would have a strong negative impact on you?
Istvan Kleijn How so? Sure, some aspects of you would be the same, even most. But your experience of the world would change. You would no longer sense things with that arm. You might be a very similar person, but not the same.
ellock1998 But we aren't just a central nervous system. What would a CNS do without a body? How would it experience the world? One can just as easily say that the brain and spinal cord are just there to do the computation work and message carrying for the rest of the body.
The truth seems to be that you are not your brain, nor are you your mind. You are your body, of which your brain is one part, and from which your mind arises.
I'm actually feeling depressed and useless seeing people my age have already reached something so I decided to come here and learn something that could help me in the future
omg i've been wasting my whole damn time by not watching your videos while i'm walking trough the internet
Human Anatomy is hard at AP level but you will be thankful you never took a Humanities subject if you ever study at Masters level.
Shanti Hamdani Ikr I wish i had taken time to find this guys channel, years ago lol well, I might still need the videos now :P
Shanti Hamdani LoL me too!
Some of the best archive of medical insights. That's what people need. To read a book it takes 2 years but something like this is worthwhile to get know most within exam and learn more. Thanks. Know your sense and this gives it all.
Learned so much from this guy
Gave me a more specific understanding of Anatomy and physiology Thanks!
i’m JUST wrapping up my anatomy and physiology class this year, but i know crash course will have future anatomy students’ backs :)
At first I was so confused, so I watched the video again and this time I'm taking notes. Plenty of notes.
OMG , just at one vid I understand pretty much more than what I’ve learned in my college, keep going man I’ll get straight A’s no doubt !
After watching this video I first got mad at all of my teachers from elementary to highschool then started thinking about my child and how I wouldn't like the same thing to happen to him/her ( go to school and learn nothing when it's really interesting and important ) and I came to the conclusion that I would try to convince my friend's kids to group them together and let them watch these courses. Your channel has the best teachers out there
Super clear and easy, thank you Doc.
I'm about to go to medical school. I think these videos will help me take in the new information quicker. Thanks
roz what how’s medical school
Watching this 8 years on, past Hank is giving me uncanny valley vibes. Its like Hank but... not. All kidding aside Crash Course is incredible- I've got some mystery health stuff happening so decided to learn about medicine but was overwhelemed, then I thought to check for a Crash Course, and you guys came through as always! This one video has already helped me understand what the hell specialists are on about!
this is one of the most amazing instructor I've ever seen! look no further this is real learning my asperger ne
7:15 - Directional Terms
Thank you!!
Dear Hank, Thank you for single -handely getting me through my degree.
Sincerely - Every med / health student ever
You should do a series on Pathophysiology too
I absolutely love this channel. I wish you guys had a podcast so I could listen/learn all the time!
this man/channel deserves all the money in the world. I this entire A&P playlist is LIFESAVING🙏🏾
Thanks A LOT. CrashCourse made it easier for me to understand lots of things, and so I'm doing well in biology class. ALL THE BEST Sir Green!!
Decided to watch this in preparation for nursing school, as I hear this course is what some may refer to as a bitch.
Oh my goodness same!!Im taking this next semester then I can apply for the program lol
+Elizabeth La Feel ya sister!
I love the way you talk and teach, it's interacting in itself. I shall be watching more of your videos.
Thank you
I LOVE Physiology!!! Thank you , these videos help me so much !
