摘要：

Photosensitive membrane structures in the retinular cells of the Limulus lateral eye are broken down and renewed daily. The first light onset causes a rapid, synchronous disassembly and buildup of the rhabdom in each photoreceptor cell. The entire process is complete within 30 minutes. Blocking the efferent input to the dina from the brain blocks the turnover of the rhabdom, and mimicking the efferent cut by optic nerve stimulation restores it. Copyright © 1979 AAAS.
