Questions and Answers

What is the purpose of the simplified cartoon depicting the neural circuit involved in Aplysia experiments?

  • To indicate the level of fatigue in Aplysia
  • To illustrate the process of habituation in Aplysia
  • To show the location of the change in the neural circuit (correct)
  • To highlight the sensory abilities of Aplysia
  • In Pavlovian conditioning, what is the difference between CS-US contiguity (Pavlov) and CS-US contingency (Rescorla)?

  • The type of conditioned response elicited
  • The timing of the CS and US presentations (correct)
  • The duration of the unconditioned response
  • The intensity of the conditioned stimulus
  • In the contingency space diagram, what does a point representing P(US|CS) = 0 and P(US|noCS) = 0 indicate?

  • Supports inhibitory conditioning to the CS
  • Indicates extinction of the conditioned response
  • Supports excitatory conditioning to the CS
  • Supports no conditioning to the CS (correct)

    What experimental evidence from Kandel’s lab supports the notion that habituation of the gill withdrawal response in Aplysia is not caused by fatigue or a change in sensory ability?

    <p>Aplysia with impaired sensory ability still show habituation in gill withdrawal response</p> Signup and view all the answers
