Structure and mechanics of the squid mantle
The goal of this study was to obtain a complete description of the elastic modulus and hysteresis of the mantle tissue of the squid Loligo pealei over the entire functional region of the mantle. In addition, in vivo strains were measured to allow calculations of the amount of energy stored and returned in each region of the mantle studied, and microscopic analysis of the tissue was carried out ...
متن کاملAnalogues of red and white muscle in squid mantle.
In five species of squid, varying in life-style from fast-swimming pelagic predators to sluggish benthic forms, the circular muscle of the mantle was found to be metabolically and structurally differentiated into inner, middle, and outer zones. In the middle zone, mitochondrial abundance and the ratios of oxidative to glycolytic enzyme activities were low. This zone was sandwiched between thinn...
متن کاملNew perspectives on collagen fibers in the squid mantle.
The squid mantle is a complex structure which, in conjunction with a highly sensitive sensory system, provides squid with a wide variety of highly controlled movements. This article presents a model describing systems of collagen fibers that give the mantle its shape and mechanical properties. The validity of the model is verified by comparing predicted optimal fiber angles to actual fiber angl...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging analysis of water flow in the mantle cavity of live Mytilus galloprovincialis.
Water flow inside the shell of Mytilus galloprovincialis was measured by phase-contrast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). In seawater without algal cells at 23 °C, water approached the mussel from the posterior-ventral side, and entered through the inhalant aperture at a velocity of 40-20 mm s(-1). The flow rate in the lower mantle cavity decreased to 10-20 mm s(-1), the water flowed in the ant...
متن کاملEffects of temperature on escape jetting in the squid Loligo opalescens.
In Loligo opalescens, a sudden visual stimulus (flash) elicits a stereotyped, short-latency escape response that is controlled primarily by the giant axon system at 15 C. We used this startle response as an assay to examine the effects of acute temperature changes down to 6 C on behavioral and physiological aspects of escape jetting. In free-swimming squid, latency, distance traveled and peak v...
