Chapter 44.4, Problem 1R
Summary Introduction
To review:
About the ganglia and reason behind its accumulation in the anterior part of many invertebrates.
Introduction:
When the cell bodies of neurons get clustered together, then this cluster is called as the ganglia. The ganglia are required to process an information and pass it to the other cells. Even a small invertebrate like an earthworm or a spider needs ganglia to perform simple tasks.
