Eight different kinds of dopamine innervate by the mushroom body. Dopamine responds to the odor and pairing of the odor.
MBON respond to the odor and the rewards associated to it.
a) yes, in this experiment, DAN 1 and DAN 2 will be activated in response to the odor. When MBON gets activated, then its modulatory DAN will also get activated.
b) During phase one, the MBON 1 and 2 both gets activated depending upon the like or dislike of the odor. since odor is new and not learned earlier, both the MBON shows the reading. If each odor is liked by fly then MBON1 strongly respond and iF each odor is disliked, then MBON2 is strongly responded.
c) In phase 3, MBON 1 is strongly responded to odour 1. This is because odor 1 is along with the reward of sugar. While MBON 2 is responded to odour 2 as it has no reward. This happens because in third phase, they are have learned the odor.
Question 2. Consider the following olfactory learning experiment performed in Drosophila Phase 1: A fly is...
