Abstract

A 163-day orbital flight increased the baseline impulse activity of statocyst receptor cells in terrestrial pulmonata snail Helix lucorum. The maximum of reaction to step static stimuli (changes in body position in the range from 0 to 180 degrees) was significantly shifted by 30 degrees from gravitational vertical, while the reaction to dynamic stimuli (dumped sinusoidal oscillations) faded more rapidly than in control animals.
