Anotace knihy

For more than a century now, it has been known that§patterns of electrical activity between neurons§account for the marvelous repertoire of animal§behaviors that we see in nature. Neuroethology tries§to understand how the nervous system is responsible§for animal behavior. The marine nudibranch Tritonia§diomedea possesses a rather simple nervous system§with maybe ten thousand brain cells (compared to the§one hundred billion estimated for Homo sapiens). This§book focuses on the very important role of a single§pair of neurons in the motor behavior of this sea§slug. The techniques used allowed for the recording§and the stimulation of individual cells during§navigation in the freely moving animal. The analysis§revealed a sufficient role for a pair of neurons in§turning while crawling suggesting that Tritonia s§nervous system integrates sensory information into a§single cell capable of directing the motor output§during crawling. This work reveals the capabilities§of a single cell in behavor and should be useful for§professionals interested in the theory of neuronal§control as well as researchers aware of the potential§of single cell stimulation.
