چکیده
0340-7594:82:014910179 803.00 Summary. 1. The common response properties to simple visual stimuli (light impulses, light steps, and movement of simple patterns at different speeds) has been investigated by intracellular recording from Giant Vertical Cells (VS) in the lobula plate of the blowfly Calliphora erythtroccephala. 2. The impulse response begins < 10 ms after onset of the photoreceptor signal (Fig. 6), and shows several phases which gradually subside within about 0.5 s. Very late events, which would hint at recurrent or far-reaching sidepaths, were not observed.

1. The structure of one class of giant tangential neurons in the lobula plate of Calliphora, the `Vertical System (VS)' has been investigated by light microscopy. Different staining and reconstruction procedures were employed to ensure that all existing VS-neurons are revealed. 2. There are 11 VS-cells in a characteristic, and constant arrangement (Fig. 2). Each cell covers a particular area of...

متن کاملDimensional analysis does not determine a mass exponent for metabolic scaling.
In several recent article, Heusner used dimensional reasoning to derive important biological conclusions regarding the scaling of metabolism with body mass [Respir. Physiol. 48: 13-25, 1982; J. Appl. Physiol. 54: 867-873, 1983; Am. J. Physiol. 246 (Regulatory Integrative Comp. Physiol. 15): R839-R845, 1984]. We demonstrate errors in the derivation and show that dimensional analysis, correctly a...

The buccal musculature of the carnivorous gastropod Pleurobranchaea is used in three cyclic patterns of coordination underlying, respectively, ingestion, egestion, and a third, unknown behavior(s) (Croll, R. P., and W. J. Davis (1981) J. Comp. Physiol. 145: 277-287; Croll, R. P., and W. J. Davis (1982) J. Comp. Physiol. 147: 143-154). The corresponding three motor programs can be identified and...
