MORPHOLOGICAL CORRELATES OF FUNCTIONAL DIFFERENTIATION OF NODES OF RANVIER ALONG SINGLE FIBERS IN THE NEUROGENIC ELECTRIC ORGAN OF THE KNIFE FISH STERNARCHUS

Electric organs in Sternarchidae are of neural origin, in contrast to electric organs in other fish, which are derived from muscle. The electric organ in Sternarchus is composed of modified axons of spinal neurons. Fibers comprising the electric organ were studied by dissection and by light- and ele...
