Fig. 2. The mean normalized neural firing rates of (A) silent (N=4) and (B) spontaneously active afferent fibers (N=5) of the anterior lateral line are plotted versus the distance of the innervated neuromasts to the prey. All firing rates were normalized according to the maximum firing rate recorded during each trial. Neural activity was analyzed only when the prey fish was at the same location for greater than 500 ms. All distances were measured from the insertion point of the nearside prey pectoral fin to the neuromast that was innervated by the recording. Asterisks indicate significantly different means from controls (ANOVA). The broken horizontal line in B represents the mean normalized spontaneous firing rate from spontaneously active fibers.
