Bones of the human leg (large print)
by RnibThis image shows the bones of the human leg seen from the front. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The right leg is on the left and the left leg is on the right of the page. The thigh bone is at the top of the page and the feet are at the bottom of the page. The thigh long bone (femur) of the right leg fills the top left of the page. At the top right of it is the rounded ball where the leg fits into a socket in the pelvis to make the hip joint. At the bottom end of the bone the round kneecap (patella) lies above the knee joint. Down from the thigh bone the lower leg is made of two long bones lying next to each other. The larger tibia is to the right and the smaller, narrower fibula is to the left. The bones of the foot are at the bottom of the page with the little toe on the left and the big toe on the right. The left leg is a reflection of this shown on the right of the page

Bones of the human right foot (Large print)
by RnibThis image shows the bones of the human foot shown from above. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The toes are at the top of the page and the heel bone is at the bottom centre of the page. The big toe is at the top left and is made of two bones. The other four toes to the right are each made of three bones. Down from the toes are five long bones and then a number of square and rounded bones that form the body of the foot. The two bones just up from the heel are where the lower end of the long bones of the lower leg attach. They would come straight up towards you.

Boyle's experiment (large print)
by RnibThere are four images of Boyle's experiment on this page, showing what happens when a mouse and a candle are deprived of air. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The two diagrams on the top of the page show a mouse on a block in a bell jar before and after the air has been pumped out. In the left hand image the mouse is alive breathing the oxygen in the air. The right hand image shows the mouse lying dead on its back because the oxygen has been removed. The two diagrams on the bottom of the page show a candle in a bell jar before and after the air has been pumped out. In the left hand image the candle is burning using the oxygen in the air. The right hand image shows the candle has been extinguished because the oxygen has been removed.

The Brain - Consciously Controlling Reflexes (tactile)
by RnibThis diagram shows a man holding a hot plate. His muscles and nerve endings are shown and there is a key above.
Breathing in - front view (UEB contracted)
by RnibThis diagram shows the outline of the chest with the lungs and respiratory tract in cross section. 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 chest is facing you and is surrounded by an image border. There are also two thumbnail diagrams at the bottom of the page. At the top centre of the page is the larynx. The respiratory tract runs down and divides, going left and right into each lung. The cut sections of the ribs surround the lungs to the left and right. Between them towards the bottom of the diagram is a slightly curved horizontal thick line representing the diaphragm. The ribs have lifted upwards and outwards, and the diaphragm has contracted resulting in it flattening. This increases the capacity of the chest which lowers the pressure and draws air in. The two thumbnail diagrams at the bottom of the page show the shape of the chest when breathing in on the left and out on the right.

The cut sections of the ribs surround the lungs to the left and right. Between them towards the bottom of the diagram is a curved horizontal thick line representing the diaphragm. The ribs have fallen downwards and inwards, and the diaphragm has relaxed resulting in it rising. This decreases the capacity of the chest which forces air out. The two thumbnail diagrams at the bottom of the page show the shape of the chest when breathing in on the left and out on the right.

Capacitor circuits (contracted)
by RnibShows two circuits with capacitors.The top circuit starts on the left with two horizontal line of different length, which is the standard symbol for a power supply. Moving anti-clockwise around the circuit brings you to a standard capacitor symbol (2 lines with the same lengths), next is a rectangle (a resistor), the a switch (a break in the wire) and then its back to the power supply to complete the circuit. The bottom circuit contains all the same components except for the power supply. On either side of the capacitor there are + and - which shows the charge stored in the capacitor.
Capillary carrying food to cells (large print)
by RnibThis labelled diagram shows a capillary (small blood vessel) carrying food to body tissue. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The capillary runs horizontally across the top part of the page with an arrow indicating the direction of blood flow. Down the page are five cells absorbing the nutrients that are leaking out from the capillary. Each cell has a nucleus represented by a large dot.

Car stopping distances (large print)
by RnibThis is a labelled diagram showing the distance that a car will travel from the moment the driver sees a hazard and applies the brakes, to the time it finally stops. There is a locator dot shown, which will be at the top left of the page when the image is the correct way up. The stopping distances for a car travelling at 30 mph, 50 mph and 70 mph are shown. The stopping distances are represented by large arrows going across the page with their heads to the right. To the right of the top arrow is a small image of a minicar. The thinking and braking distances on each arrow are represented by two textures on the tactile version of the diagram and the colours blue and pink on the large print version. There is a key in the bottom left of the page.
