Ethanol consumption has been shown to have many deleterious effects, including behavioral alterations, motor deficits, reduction in inhibition, and alteration of neurochemical expression. These effects occur the wide variety species that consume ethanol. Although studies examined aversive conditioning honey bees (Apis mellifera), few role intoxication on acquisition learning such paradigms. The current study continues a line research using as model explore ethanol toxicity. A passive...
Honey bees are a commonly used species for alcohol research due to their genome being fully sequenced, behavioral changes following consumption, and preference alcohol. The purpose of this article is provide preliminary examination the genetic expression heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) big potassium ion channel (BKP) in honey consumption either 0%, 2.5%, 5%, or 10% ethanol (EtOH) solutions. foraging behaviors were observed recorded through return drinking times. There significant differences...
Aversive learning has been studied in a variety of species, such as honey bees, mice, and non-human primates. Since aversive found some invertebrates mammals, it will be interesting to know if this ability is shared with crickets. This paper provides data on male female house crickets ( Acheta domesticus ) using shuttle box apparatus. Crickets are an ideal subject for these experiments due their well-documented abilities other contexts readily quantifiable behaviors. The involves...
Researchers have determined that bioavailable aluminum chloride (AlCl3) may affect honey bee behavior (e.g., foraging patterns and locomotion) physiology abdominal spasms). The purpose of these experiments was to determine if Fiji water reduces the impacts AlCl3 toxicity in bees by measuring circadian rhythmicity (number times crossed centerline during day night), average daily activity (average number per day), mortality rates days survived) using an automated monitor apparatus. Overall,...
