serotonin
The purpose of this lab was to gain a better understanding of neuro-muscular synapse by observing nematode, Caenorhabdtis elegans, egg/ embryo laying habits before and after being introduced to serotonin. ... Normal and mutated nematodes were observed before and after the application of serotonin to their petri dish. The number of eggs each type of nematode had on their plate was recorded before and after the serotonin was added. ... 05mL of serotonin was added to the plate and the time recorded. ... Before the serotonin was added the wild type had too many eggs on its plate to count.
