Abstract
In leech ganglia, an individual sensory cell that responds specifically to noxious mechanical stimulation of the skin (N cell) excites two different motoneurones. One raises the annuli of the skin into ridges (the AE cell), while the other innervates logitudinal muscles and thereby shortens the body segment (L cell). A comparison has been made of the way in which these two synapses behave when their common presynaptic cell is stimulated in various conditions.
