[Responses of the neurons of the parietal associative cortex of the cat brain to indifferent and conditioned acoustic stimuli]. 1988

A S Afonskiĭ, and G N Shevko

Neuronal responses of the associative cortex (field 5) to indifferent and to conditioned sound stimuli were studied. The number of neurons responding to the conditioned sound during classical reflex increased two times. A percentage of inhibitory responses of neurons to conditioned acoustic stimulus during placing reflex grew. Neurons were found which responded to the conditioned sound only in the absence of the conditioned movement during instrumental food reflex. Despite the fact that the associative cortex participates in the analysis of sensory signals and in evaluation of their biological significance, its main functional property is its involvement in the initiation of behavioral reaction to the conditioned stimulus.

D002415 Cats The domestic cat, Felis catus, of the carnivore family FELIDAE, comprising over 30 different breeds. The domestic cat is descended primarily from the wild cat of Africa and extreme southwestern Asia. Though probably present in towns in Palestine as long ago as 7000 years, actual domestication occurred in Egypt about 4000 years ago.
