متن کاملRole of interneurons in defensive withdrawal reflexes in Aplysia.
Introduction Much attention has been focused on the contr ibution of sensory neurons and their synaptic connections to defensive reflexes in Aplysia. The two best understood withdrawal reflexes in terms of their underlying circuitry and their roles in learning and memory, are the siphon-elicited siphon-gill withdrawal reflex and the tail-elicited tail-siphon withdrawal reflex (Fig. 1; for revie...
