EARTHWORMGLUTAMATE RECEPTORVOLTAGE-SENSITIVE DYEOPTICAL RECORDINGMEDIAN GIANT FIBERLATERAL GIANT FIBERWe investigated glutamate-induced neuron response in the ventral nerve cord of the earthworm (Eisenia foetida) using a voltage-sensitive dye-imaging technique. Isolated earthworm ganglia were stained by ...
Identify the cranial nerve from its embryonic origin and the type of innervation that it carries: Dorsal root; general sensory; postganglionic parasympathetic The dorsal body cavity contains the ___. (a) brain and spinal cord (b) thoracic viscera (c) abdominal viscera (d) vital organs. The...

Nerve cells and tracts in the ventral nerve cord of the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris are thoroughly described and partly individually identified: sensory bundles, ventral giant fibers, central neurons with peripheral axons and various types of interneurons are recognized.Jorge Günther...

Transection of anterior 5 segments in Metaphire peguana engenders characteristic changes in the functional activity of the ventral nerve cord-neurosecretory system in the event of cephalic regeneration. Of the two types of neurosecretory cells, the moderately stained cells remain more susceptible when ...
