Conclusions

  1. 1.

    When food and avoidance stimuli are presented simultaneously toHelix lucorum, only avoidance behavior is realized.

  2. 2.

    The intracellularly evoked spike discharge in command neurons of feeding behavior does not directly affect activity of the command neurons of avoidance behavior, and vice versa.

  3. 3.

    Relations between the neuronal systems of feeding and avoidance behavior are determined by the organization of sensory inputs to command neurons.
