Active control of surface immobilization in the foraging behavior of Paramecium
Paramecium is a common freshwater ciliate, a unicellular swimming eukaryote that feeds on bacteria. Since the discovery that its motility is controlled by action potentials, which earned it the nickname of "swimming neuron", many studies have documented the effect of various stimuli on its behavior, as well as their physiological basis, highlighting the richness of adaptive behavior in this…
