Description: Sensory neurons in the lizard’s eyes relay information about the position of a fly to interneurons in the lizard’s brain. Signals from interneurons in the lizard’s brain flow to motor neurons, which in turn send stimulatory signals to the muscle fibers of the lizard’s long, coiled-up tongue. The tongue uncoils swiftly and precisely to reach the very spot where the fly is perched.
