Fig. 2. Odor-aversion learning was not affected by the control treatment, but was
completely abolished by amputation of both stets of tentacles, the STs and
ITs. (Ai) Experimental schedule of the pre-conditioning control treatment.
(Aii) The avoidance rate (%) of the slugs with the pre-conditioning control
treatment. (Bi) Experimental schedule of the post-conditioning control
treatment. (Bii) The avoidance rate (%) of the slugs with the
post-conditioning control treatment. (Ci,Cii) Odor-aversion learning was
affected by the amputation of both STs and ITs. (Ci) Experimental schedule of
the post-conditioning ST+IT amputation. (Cii) The avoidance rate (%) of the
slugs with the post-conditioning ST+IT amputation. The conditioning, the
control treatment (or ST+IT amputation), and the retention test are indicated
by ,
and
, respectively. The numbers above the columns
indicate the number of slugs used for the retention tests.
