Abstract:Plasticity of the nervous system enables the formation of the most adaptive neural circuits and the corresponding behavior of animals. The mechanism by which plasticity arises during development and its involvement in animal adaptation is one of the astonishing questions. Sea urchin larvae are known for their evolutionary and ecological diversity as well as their developmental forms and behavioral patterns. This research addresses the intricate neuroendocrine adaptations that govern larval development of sea u… Show more
