Morphological and Functional Recovery of the Planarian Photosensing System during Head Regeneration

Morphological and Functional Recovery of the Planarian Photosensing System during Head Regeneration

When exposed to light, planarians display a distinctive light avoidance behavior known as negative phototaxis. Such behavior is temporarily suppressed when animals are decapitated, and it is restored once the animals regenerate their heads. Head regeneration and the simple but reproducible phototact...
