Why did Kandel apply electric shocks to the gills of Aplysia californica?
◦ He wanted to see if the Aplysia could learn to withdraw its gill when touched by a nonpainful stimulus, suggesting the sea slug could remember.
◦ He wanted to watch what would happen to the neurons in the Aplysia's tail.
◦ He was testing his own memory to see if he could remember exactly where to place the electric shock to get the maximum gill withdrawal.
◦ He was measuring the Aplysia's gill withdrawal reflex as a proxy for pain.
