Acetylcholine Depolarizes Barnacle Photoreceptors [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Biology, 1985 ABSTRACT A variety of vertebrate and invertebrate sensory cells are known to be sensitive to acetylcholine (ACh), although the purpose of ACh receptors on these cells is not understood. Acetylcholine elicits action potentials from the sensory cell of the crayfish stretch receptor organ, which receives inhibitory but not excitatory ...

Isotopic niche variability in macroconsumers of the East Scotia Ridge (Southern Ocean) hydrothermal vents: What more can we learn from an ellipse? [PDF]
, 2016 Aspects of between-individual trophic niche width can be explored through the isotopic niche concept. In many cases isotopic variability can be influenced by the scale of sampling and biological characteristics including body size or sex.
