[The mono- and polysynaptic connections between identified neurons in the system of the passive defensive reflex in the edible snail].
A structure of synaptic connections between the identified sensory and giant command neurons of Helix lucorum was studied. It was found that EPSPs arising in the giant neuron as responses to single action potentials generation in sensory neuron consist of several monosynaptic and several polysynaptic components having different magnitude, latencies, and plasticity. The latencies of monosynaptic components are determined by different presynaptic terminals' lengths.
