Predator-induced defenses are well-known adaptive responses found in many marine and freshwater organisms. These responses usually occur in juveniles or actively growing adults and reduce the ability of a predator to consume its prey. We report a predator-induced response occurring in utero in the viviparid snail Bellamya chinensis (Gray, 1863) that results in significant changes in offspring n...
متن کاملThermal Tolerance Limits of Heart Function in Tegula Snail Congeners of the Marine Intertidal Marine Biology
1 The marine intertidal is one of the harshest environments on earth. Organisms inhabiting the transition from land to sea are subject to a host of environmental stresses, including temperature variation, dessication stress, wave force, and salinity [1, 2]. The daily tidal cycle is largely responsible for the drastic, rapid temperature fluctuations typical of the intertidal, exposing organisms ...

متن کاملLifelong neurogenesis in the cerebral ganglion of the Chinese mud snail, Cipangopaludina chinensis
INTRODUCTION A small group of Gastropods possessing giant neurons have long been used to study a wide variety of fundamental neurophysiological phenomena. However, the majority of gastropods do not have large neurons but instead have large numbers of small neurons and remain largely unstudied. We explored neuron size and rate of increase in neuron numbers in the Chinese mud snail, Cipangopaludi...
