PVM

Neuron class of one neuron, posterior ventral microtuble cell, touch receptor.

AVM

Neuron class of one sensory neuron, anterior ventral microtubule cell, touch receptor.

ALM

Neuron class of two anterior sensory neurons that transduce touch stimuli.

mechanosensory neuron

neuron that senses and responds to mechanical stimuli, such as touch.

PLM

Neuron class of two posterior sensory neurons that transduce touch stimuli.

ADE

Neuron class of two sensory neurons of anterior deirids, sensory receptors in lateral alae, contain dopamine.

AIY

Neuron class of two interneurons, is one of the main classes of integrating neuron for the receptors of the amphid sensilla.

AIZ

Neuron class of two interneurons with cell bodies situated in the lateral ganglia, one of the main classes of integrating neuron for the receptors of the amphid sensilla.

nervous system

Complement of nervous tissue (neurones, nerves, receptors and support cells) serving to detect, relay and coordinate information about an animal's internal and external environments and to initiate and integrate its effector responses and activities.
