Animals generally exhibit circadian rhythms of locomotor activity. They initiate locomotor behavior not only reflexively in response to external stimuli but also spontaneously in the absence of any specific stimulus. The neuronal mechanisms underlying circadian locomotor activity can, therefore, be

Evolutionary diversification of secondary mechanoreceptor cells in tunicata.

Rigon F, Stach T, Caicci F, Gasparini F, Burighel P, Manni L.AbstractBACKGROUND: Hair cells are vertebrate secondary sensory cells located in the ear and in the lateral line organ. Until recently, these cells were considered to be mechanoreceptors exclusively found in vertebrates that evolved within this group. Evidence of secondary mechanoreceptors in some tunicates, the proposed sister group of vertebrates, has recently led to the hypothesis that vertebrate and tunicate secondary sensory cells share a common origin. Secondary sensory cells were described in detail in two tunicate groups, ascidians and thaliaceans, in which they constitute an oral sensory structure called the coronal organ. Among thaliaceans, the organ is absent in salps and it has been hypothesised that this condition is due to a different feeding system adopted by this group of animals. No information is available as to whether a comparable structure exists in the third group of tunicates, the appendicularians, although different sensory structures are known to be present in these animals.

… We evaluated the scapular insertion of the long head of the triceps tendon at the edge of the glenoid In this study, 16 cadaveric right shoulders (male 11 cases, female 5 cases) were evaluated for the macroscopic investigation. … For the preparation, the long head of the triceps tendon was carefully dissected and the site, the size, and the shape of the insertion were recorded. … The shape of the insertion was classified into three types, triangle in 6 cases, spindle in 7 cases and oval in one case. …
