Muscle Activity,trointestinal systems. Muscles also play an important role in the control of body heat because they generate heat, regulate heat loss through blood vessels in the skin, conserve heat by the movement of hairs, and allow an animal to move to a different temperature environment. Muscle is not a simple

Neural Dynamic Effects,etween the time when a controlling signal is generated in the nervous system and when that signal can have an effect in the world. Since neural control is needed neither to respond to things that do not change nor to send messages to structures that are static, a major factor governing the evolution

Neural Network Operations,es of well-studied networks are the monosynaptic spinal stretch reflex and the tri-synaptic circuit of the hippocampus. These two circuits are sketched in figure 16.1. It is very misleading to define a neuronal network by simply counting synapses. The circuit of a spinal stretch reflex (figure 16.1A

The process of producing and assembling percepts into a perception is clearly not the only higher function of the nervous system, bu

From Reception to Pattern Recognition and Perception,me from the one that would have otherwise occurred. Practically, the utilization of neural information always involves some modifications, even if no more than delay and relocation. In this chapter we will consider the relatively complex combination and processing of input signals that result in new patterns of neuronal activity.

Measurement of Neural Function,In an issue of the proceedings of the Bologna Academy and Institute of Sciences and Arts dated 27 March 1791, Luigi Galvani published an article that was to be a milestone in the world of physics and physiology. He began this paper, which was entitled ., with the following description:
