Cross section of a ball and socket joint (UEB Contracted)
The hip socket is in the top left of the page and the ball of the femur is in the centre of the page. The diagram is surrounded by an image border. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The upper end of the femur is in the bottom right of the page. It leads up to the femoral head which connects to the ball of the joint. The joint has a ligament holding the two bones together to the upper right and lower left of the page.
Structure of a long bone (Large Print)
This page has two images of a long bone (human thigh bone) with the hip end at the top of the page, and the knee end at the bottom of the page. A locator dot and title are shown. These must always be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The image on the left is a cross section, and the image on the right is the external appearance. The image on the left shows the internal structure and contents of the bone. It is like a tube with hard, strong bone forming the wall of the tube. Each end is filled with a lighter bone which is not quite as strong. The middle is filled with the soft marrow. Both images show the cartilage at the ends which make the joint smooth.

Life Cycle of a frog 1 of 5 (Frog ovum development) (UEB Contracted)
This page with five images illustrates stages in the development of a frog ovum. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The ovum is surrounded by a mass of jelly yolk, which is not shown. The top left of the page shows the zygote stage: a single cell with one nucleus at its centre, indicated by a dot. To the right of this is the cell in the process of division; it now has two nuclei. In the centre left of the page is the four cell stage with four separate cells, each with its own nuclei. Down the page from this the cells have divided again and now number sixteen. The bottom right section of the page shows the blastocyst stage. The cells have divided yet again and have formed a ball with a hollow containing fluid at its centre. There is a scale at the bottom of the page showing its actual size.

Life Cycle of a frog 3 of 5 (Tadpole development) (Large Print)
This is a multi-page image of the four stages of tadpole development, set on two pages. There are locator dots shown, which will be at the top left of each page when the images are the right way up. Each illustration has a scale showing its approximate size. Page 1: This page shows two illustrations of a tadpole with its head to the right of the page and its tail to the left. It is shown from the side so only one eye can be found. At the top of the page the tadpole is at an early stage of development. It still has gills to get its oxygen from the water, one of which can be found just to the left of its eye. At the bottom of the page the tadpole has grown and lost its gills. It has now developed so that it can breathe air through its mouth. Page 2: This page shows two more stages of development of the frog tadpole with its head to the right and tail to the left. At the top of the page the tadpole is viewed from the side with only one eye visible. One of its recently formed back legs can be found along the bottom edge of its body and the little bud of one of the emerging front legs can be found to the left of its mouth. At the bottom of the page the tadpole is seen from above. At the right of the image both of the tadpoles eyes are on view. To the left of this its front legs can be found and further left its back legs and tail. It is beginning to change from its 'fishy' shape to one that is more froglike.

There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. Towards the top left of the page the square is shown with an arrow to its left and pointing right, that indicates a force of 3 Newtons acting on it. Down the page, is an upward-pointing arrow indicating a force of 5 Newtons acting on the object. Across the lower half of the page, the forces acting on the object, and their vector sum, are shown in three steps, each labelled across the bottom of the page: Step 1. Represents a force of 5 Newtons, it shows a vertical line with an arrowhead at the top showing its direction. There is a scale marked by six short horizontal lines to its left. Step 2. Represents a force of 3 Newtons, it shows the line as in step 1 and additionally a right-pointing arrow with a scale of four short vertical lines up the page.Step 3. Is the same as step 2 with an additional arrow-headed line pointing up and right diagonally, representing the vector sum of the 5 and 3 Newton forces. Further to right, there is a leader line pointing to an explanatory label.

Distance-time graph (Large Print)
by Rnib BookshareThis page shows a graph of distance plotted against time. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. A background grid of light vertical and horizontal lines covers most of the page. To the far left is a vertical scale, the y-axis, which is marked in divisions of 50 metres going up the page from 0 to 400. At the bottom of the page is a horizontal scale, the x-axis, which is divided into intervals of ten seconds going from 0 on the left to 70 on the right of the page. There is a heavy line starting at the bottom left of the grid where zero is marked that slopes up to the right. It is horizontal between 30 and 50 seconds and then slopes up again. To the far right of the page is a vertical line showing distance travelled and below this, to the left, is a line showing time taken for this section of the graph line. Up and to the left of centre of the page there is the equation: speed = y/x. In the equation 'x' refers to the time (on the x-axis, going left to right) taken to travel a distance and 'y' (on the y-axis, going bottom to top) to the distance travelled in that time.

On this page there is a graph showing velocity plotted against time. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the right way up. The y-axis (velocity) is a line that extends vertically down the left-hand side of the page. Three-quarters of the way down the page, it meets the line of the x-axis (time) at a point marked with a zero (the origin). The x-axis extends horizontally across the page. A thick dashed line, which starts at the origin and goes up and down the page to the right, indicates various stages of velocity against time. Leader lines point from the plotted line to labels indicating these stages of travel.
