The motion is performed by motor cells in a flexible segment just below the flower, called a pulvinus.

Studies focus on neuromuscular junctions and modulation of abdominal motor cells.

These synapse with six motor cells, whose axons cause the muscles which withdraw the gill to contract.

The segment flexes because the motor cells at the shadow side elongate due to a turgor rise.

The motor cells are specialized in pumping potassium ions into nearby tissues, changing their turgor pressure.

Like the somatal pore, other movements of plant organs are controlled by motor cells' changing cell turgor.

And so she had been impelled, in the restless need for motion of the innumerable motor cells of a human brain, to take a walk that very first afternoon.

All of which are present in the cortex, medulla, hippocampus, and motor cells of the spinal cord and XIIth cranial nerve.

These two unlucky men did the same sort of thing; they contorted in every muscle in a grand spasm as if every motor cell in each body had been stimulated at once.

"The migrations of the motor cells of the bulbar triegeminus, abducens and facialis in the series of vertebrates, and the differences in the course of their root-fibres" (1910)

Kandel's early studies were done using the simplest of neural circuits: a single sensory cell connected via a synapse to a single motor cell mediating the gill withdrawal reflex of the giant marine snail, Aplysia.

Somatosensory system: The primary somatosensory cortex (SI) is across the central sulcus and behind the primary motor cortex configured to generally correspond with the arrangement of nearby motor cells related to specific body parts.

In 1980, she became a professor-in residence at the University of Connecticut, where she collaborated with Richard Crain, a lipid biochemist, in discovering that the phosphatidylinositol cycle is the basic light signal transduction mechanism in the leaf motor cells.

The spinal root of accessory nerve (or part) is firm in texture, and its fibers arise from the motor cells in the lateral part of the anterior column of the gray substance of the medulla spinalis as low as the fifth cervical nerve.
