Physiology: PreTest Self-Assessment and Review, Thirteenth Edition (PreTest Basic Science)

PreTest is the closest you can get to seeing the test before you take it! "I like the High-Yield section in the beginning of the book.
In light of mounting fishing pressures, increased aquaculture production and a growing concern for fish well-being, improved knowledge on the swimming physiology of fish and its application to fisheries science and aquaculture is needed. This book presents recent investigations into some of the most extreme examples of swimming migrations in salmons, eels and tunas, integrating knowledge on their performance in the laboratory with that in their natural environment. For the first time, the application of swimming in aquaculture is explored by assessing the potential impacts and beneficial effects. The modified nutritional requirements of “athletic” fish are reviewed as well as the effects of exercise on muscle composition and meat quality using state-of-the-art techniques in genomics and proteomics. The last chapters introduce zebrafish as a novel exercise model and present the latest technologies for studying fish swimming and aquaculture applications.
It's a nice and quick review yet at the same time is thorough and includes the truly high-yield things to know for boards and class." -- Sheree Perron, Third Year Medical Student, Eastern Virginia Medical School "I found Pretest Physiology to follow fairly closely with my experience with the USMLE Step 1 as far as question structure and depth of the material covered. The most basic and most commonly tested questions in physiology in each system were addressed as well as some of the finer details students still need to know." -- Daniel Marcovici, Third Year Medical Student, Sac
