Directional flow sensing by passively stable larvae.
Mollusk larvae have a stable, velum-up orientation that may influence how they sense and react to hydrodynamic signals applied in different directions. Directional sensing abilities and responses could affect how a larva interacts with anisotropic fluid motions, including those in feeding currents and in boundary layers encountered during settlement. Oyster larvae (Crassostrea virginica) were e...
متن کاملZebrafish larvae evade predators by sensing water flow.
The ability of fish to evade predators is central to the ecology and evolution of a diversity of species. However, it is largely unclear how prey fish detect predators in order to initiate their escape. We tested whether larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) sense the flow created by adult predators of the same species. When placed together in a cylindrical arena, we found that larvae were able to esc...
متن کاملDirectional Remote Sensing
Concepts of directional remote sensing are put forward based on two-dimensional compressive sensing. Very little measured data are required to acquire and reconstruct change areas in directional remote sensing. The measured data in one-dimensional compressive sensing not only keep the energy of a sparse signal, but also inherit the sparse signal’s direction information. However, direction infor...
متن کاملFlow sensing by pinniped whiskers.
Beside their haptic function, vibrissae of harbour seals (Phocidae) and California sea lions (Otariidae) both represent highly sensitive hydrodynamic receptor systems, although their vibrissal hair shafts differ considerably in structure. To quantify the sensory performance of both hair types, isolated single whiskers were used to measure vortex shedding frequencies produced in the wake of a cy...
متن کاملDirectional gravity sensing in gravitropism.
Plants can reorient their growth direction by sensing organ tilt relative to the direction of gravity. With respect to gravity sensing in gravitropism, the classic starch statolith hypothesis, i.e., that starch-accumulating amyloplast movement along the gravity vector within gravity-sensing cells (statocytes) is the probable trigger of subsequent intracellular signaling, is widely accepted. Sev...
