Neuronal responses to water flow in the marine slug tritonia diomedea
The marine slug Tritonia diomedea must rely on its ability to touch and smell in order to navigate because it is blind. The primary factor that influences its crawling direction is the direction of water flow (caused by tides in nature). The sensory cells that detect flow and determine flow directio...
