behavior, learning, and memory

25
The sea hare (Aplysia) has 3 sets of ganglia stack upon one another, list them and state number of clusters
cervical (2) ganglion ring (3) abdominal ganglia (1)
26
the abdominal ring of the sea hare (Aplysia) controls ___ ____ and led to discoveries in ___ and ___
controls gill reflexes and led to discoveries in learning and memory
27
what are of the brain controls learning and memory?
hippocampus
28
invertebrates usually have cephalization (T/F)
False
29
def: cephalization
brain formation
30
common traits in the invertebrate NS include...
ganglia, connectives b/t ganglia, and nerves (sensory and motor)
31
def: ganglion
a cluster of neurons with a central neuropile where fine processes of neurons are connected
32
Invertebrates typically have large neurons and slow AP (T/F)
True
33
def: hemocoel
a body cavity with blood
34
def: efferent
signal from NS
35
def: afferent
signal to NS
36
when animals have no myelin they often have a ...
centralized NS
37
the bigger the axon the...
bigger the AP because a bigger pipe=better flow
38
traits of a pulmonate (garden ) snail include...
air and water, shelled, larger axons than ours
39
the pulmonate (garden ) snails naurons have what enzyme?
Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH)
40
Tyrosine Hydroxylase (TH) function is...
and amino acid that makes dopamine
41
researches can use ___ to tag an antibody
fluorescencents
42
the pulmonate (garden ) snail has ___ for a brain with ___ neurons
ring of ganglia with 10 neurons
43
def: epitope
part of an antigen molecule that occurs in different places so the antibody can attach itself to surfaces
44
def: indirect inflorescence
most common way to tag antibodies because its cheaper and results in a bigger final segment
45
What is this process called? 1) immobilized agent A 2) primary antibody -> rabbit antibody directed against antigen A 3)secondary antibody ->marker coupled anti-bodies directed against rabbit antibodies 3) marker is completed
process is called indirect immunoflouresence https://ibidi.com/img/cms/applications/immunofluorescence/IF_principle_direct_indirect.jpg

51
def: optogenetics
technique that uses light-sensitive ion channels to change protein channels genetically in mice so that when shown light there is a change in the AP
52
channelrhodopsin is an example of channels from what ions?
Ca, Na, H, and K
53
haloropsin is an example of channels from what ions?
Chlorine
54
in optogenetics how does the AP change when the protein channel is shown light?
reverses the direction or stops it completely so that the bacterium moves
55
optogenetics in mice occurs by using...
engineered DNA with a reporter gene is introduced into the mice
