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.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
