Figure 7


Fig. 7. Post-flight observations of the rVOR amplitude (A,C) and rVOR gain (B,D) from tadpoles that flew on the 10-day French Soyuz taxi flight Andromède to the International Space Station (2001) compared to their ground-reared siblings. At onset of the mission, tadpoles had reached developmental stages 26-27 (A,B) or stage 45 (C,D). Observations were from the post-flight days 2-4. Each animal was tested only once. rVOR amplitude and rVOR gain30, cf. Fig. 1. Filled circles, microgravity tadpoles (0g); 0g-animals were grouped according to the development of lordosis or normal development. Open circles, animals from the ground control (1g). Numbers at the abscissa indicate sample size. Groups that differ significantly are connected by brackets; levels of significances are shown. Note the increase of the rVOR in the old group with normal tails.
