This brief and specialized book is designed for general non-major biology courses and includes coverage of animal tissues, homeostasis, anatomy and physiology of all major organ systems, and many human applications. ANIMAL STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION, 11th Edition covers Chapter 28 and Chapters 33-44 from BIOLOGY: THE UNITY AND DIVERSITY OF LIFE, 11th Edition.
