The relation of feeding and activity following septal lesions in rats.

abstract：:Following spinal transection of the upper thoracic spinal cord, male Sprague-Dawley rats given legshock whenever a hindlimb is extended learn to maintain the leg in a flexed position. The region of the cord that mediates this instrumental learning was isolated using neuroanatomical tracing, localized infusion of lidoc...

abstract：:When a passing shadow is presented to the crab (Chasmagnathus granulatus), an escape response is elicited that habituates after repeated stimulation. Results of previous papers suggest that this habituation might be mediated by endogenous opiates, entailing the postulate that opiates may inhibit the response to a dang...
