ANTA02H3 Lecture Notes - Lecture 2: Long-Term Memory, Chromosome, Short-Term Memory
Document Summary
Foraging could be food related; meaning that the less the food availability the more they would forage; They put the larvae on agar (sitters and rovers) and they found the movement to be the same amount; They put them on yeast, they found rover to be more. They put them on agar with only patches of yeast and they still found the rovers to move more. It could also be that the larvae were able to smell the food, thus some foraged better than others eg. rovers sense of smell is better. Draw a parameter for what it means to be a sitter and a rover (forager), basically seeing how much movement will differentiate between rover or sitter. They did a study where they crossed sitters with rovers (dominants with recicive etc) to show if there was a genetic basis for the trait; eg. rover or sitter;
