Fig. 3. Learning and memory of snails trained in 50 and 75 µmol
l1 of H2S. (A) A cohort of naïve snails
(N=24) were trained using the same LTM training procedure as in
Fig. 2 while being exposed to
H2S at a concentration of 50 µmol l1. This
cohort of snails showed both learning and memory (ANOVA
F(23,2)=23.9962 P<0.01; sessions 2 and 3
significantly different from session 1, P<0.01). (B) Another
cohort of naïve snails (N=11) was subjected to the same LTM
training procedure as in A except that these snails were exposed to an
H2S concentration of 75 µmol l1. Again both
learning and memory occurred (ANOVA F(10,2)=6.6139,
P<0.01; sessions 2 and 3 significantly different from session 1,
P<0.05 and P<0.01, respectively).
