Lesson 1: Basic Anatomy

Anatomy is a life science that looks at the parts of living things and how those parts work. The human body has many parts that each do a job. The brain, heart, and lungs are a few of the parts. Can you match each body part with the part’s name? Collect all your parts and begin.
