... by examination of the eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenvectors in the system matrix A. The model described above assumes zero latency of sensory feedbacks. However, because real sensory systems exhibit delays and these may be particularly large in the visual systems of crepuscular insects ( Kelber et...

.... The latencies of the later depressed responses were ∼0.1 ms longer than that of EPSP 1 , suggesting a reduced release probability. The Ca 2+ chelators EGTA and BAPTA, injected presynaptically, reduced all EPSPs and slowed development of the second component of depression. Interestingly, spike broadening...

... axon latency The biramous antennules (first antennae) of freshwater crayfish possess batteries of cuticular sense organs arrayed linearly along the paired lateral and medial flagella. These include olfactory (aesthetasc) sensilla on the distal half of the lateral flagellum, and both near-field...

...Michael I. Latz; Michelle Bovard; Virginia VanDelinder; Enrico Segre; Jim Rohr; Alex Groisman SUMMARY Dinoflagellate bioluminescence serves as a model system for examining mechanosensing by suspended motile unicellular organisms. The response latency, i.e. the delay time between the mechanical...
