Abstract
By stimulating and recording from the same interneuron at two separate points, we have shown that coordinated output to the postural abdominal muscles of crayfish can be produced by electrical stimulation of a single cell. Several central neurons can individually initiate one type of movement(for example, flexion),each producing a unique abdominal geometry.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
