Cutaneous Respiration in Octopus Vulgaris
The skin of Octopus vulgaris consumes considerable quantities of oxygen in vitro, averaging 4.55×10−5±1.80×10−5 ml mm−2 h−1 (mean ± S.D.), if a flow is maintained over the skin sample (N=32). The consumption is higher still in vivo, 11.36×10−5±2.73×10−5 ml mm−2 h−1 (N=8), suggesting an additional net import of oxygen through the skin when the blood system is intact. If a substantial boundary la...
متن کاملObservational Learning in Octopus vulgaris.
Untrained Octopus vulgaris (observers) were allowed to watch conditioned Octopus(demonstrators) perform the task of selecting one of two objects that were presented simultaneously and differed only in color. After being placed in isolation, the observers, in a similar test, consistently selected the same object as did the demonstrators. This learning by observation occurred irrespective of the ...
متن کاملWeight Discrimination by Octopus
Blinded octopuses can readily be taught to discriminate between objects touched provided that these differ in 'roughness'; objects with equally irregular surfaces, differing only in the distribution of irregularities, and objects of similar texture but different shape, are not distinguished. It seems that the animals are incapable of learning to recognize specific patterns of stimulation in the...
متن کاملAppetitive conditioning in Octopus cyanea.
The performance of Octopus cyanea was studied in 3 appetitive conditioning situations. In Experiment 1, 2 groups were trained in a runway; a large reward produced faster acquisition when reinforcement was consistent and better subsequent performance on a partial schedule than did a small reward. In Experiment 2, activity in the vicinity of a feeder was measured, and in Experiment 3, latency and...
متن کاملProgesterone Affects Vitellogenesis in Octopus vulgaris
The electrophoretic analysis of egg yolk proteins of the mollusc Octopus vulgaris by both SDSand nativePAGE, showed two different patterns that mirror the two main periods characterizing the reproductive cycle of the female of Octopus vulgaris: the non-vitellogenic period (October-February) and the vitellogenic period (March-July). Since different levels of progesterone also characterize these ...
