The selected gastropods species were assigned to three different body mass classes: (A) large sized animals (whole body mass: 75–105 g) = matureL. fulica[N = 5 individuals]; (B) medium sized animals (whole body mass: 10–38 g) = H. pomatiaand immatureL. fulica[N =...
Previous MRI research has investigated the biomechanics of normal and age-related swallowing [35] and quantified changes in muscles in the pharynx, larynx, and oral cavity in clinical populations such as head and neck cancers [36,37] and whiplash-associated disorders [38]. To date, research has...
