Muscularis Mucosa is more common, but with medical terms there are often multiple terms from different jargon. But I'd go with the Mucosa one because I have not heard of Musculae one.

Well I'm interested in doing this event as a newbie and was wondering if you guys have any tips? I'm doing disease as well and in school I'm taking H bio and H chem (we've learned about digestive, urinary, and respiratory systems so far). I also have a human body book and borrowed this book titled "Anatomy and Physiology" from my school. Do you have any links or suggestions? Thanks!

The systems this year are Digestive, Excretory, and Nervous. You should research most of the stuff to know from books or websites (none off the top of my head right now besides the SciOly wiki ... ). Check the rulebook for what you have to know each system as well. I used the book "Functional Human Anatomy" by David T. Lindsay to gather info for the nervous system, everything else I got from the wiki (scioly.org, top of the page) or the official website training materials (soinc.org). You should probably gather your info, find what stuff is the hardest for you to remember, and put those parts on your notes sheet and memorize anything that's easy to remember.

Okay thank you! I'm planning on checking out the systems this weekend and starting a cheat sheet:)

I am doing this event as a substitute for Invitationals. Because I am only serving as a substitute, I do not have the rules. I want to be as prepared as I can for this event, so I have some questions.
1. Is there a copy of the rules somewhere?
2. What exactly is physiology?

Remember, I'm only doing this as a substitute.

1. That's a direct violation of soinc copyrights, so nope.
2. Anatomy is how the body is built. Physiology is how the body actually functions.

Okay, thank you. What kind of notes are brought to this event? Binder or notesheet?

No excuse, Seedy. Get a copy of the rules from your coach or teammate. In the days of copy machines and e-mail, this isn't hard. And A&P is a cheat sheet event. The craftier you are making it, the better.

As a supervisor, though, I can tell you that the notesheet is not everything. I can always tell the bottom of the pack by their lousy notesheets, but at the top end that doesn't work. All of the leaders have good notesheets, but the kids with the very best sometimes end up towards the middle of the pack, because they have to look up every question and they run out of time.

Certainly. Using <8pt font and cramming pages worth of text into one page with small diagrams does nobody good. I've seen cheat sheets like those. If the event was intended to have that much information brought in, they rules would allow a binder.
