Summary
Experiments were conducted on 4 dogs by the method of salivary conditioned reflexes. After elaboration of the background of the sound conditioned reflexes the cortex of one of the cerebral hemispheres was removed and the changes in these reflexes were subjected to study. On the basis of experimental data the author concludes that the sound analyzer is characterized by a strict functional symmetry. Removal of one symmetrical point of the cortex does not provoke any functional disturbance in the other.
