Stomatogastric nervous system
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
The Stomatogastric Nervous System is a commonly studied neural network composed of several ganglion in arthropod that controls the motion of the gut and foregut. It is a model organism for motor pattern generation because of the small number of cells and the comparitively large cells which can be reliably identified. The system is composed of the stomatogastric ganglion, oesophageal ganglion and the paired commissural ganglia.
