Summarizing developments in ethology over several decades, GORDON BURGHARDT observes that we now "appreciate more fully that innate or instinctive mechanisms underlie even much learned and cultural behavior, from what we fear to what we like to eat to how we fight, love, and play." There is nothing trivial about explanations that illuminate the way basic biological dispositions arborize into our most complex and refined cultural practices.

Additionally, the affected propriospinal neurons arborize on lumbar motoneurons so that the detoured corticospinal signals reach their original targets [22].

The mesenchyme is penetrated by proliferating buds that arborize and terminate in acini.

Normally, the first retinal axons reach and start to arborize the optic tectum at 2 dpf and a preliminary arborization of the tectum is formed at 3dpf (data not shown).

Each LAA extends laterally for a short distance, then descends and arborizes to supply hemolymph to the abdominal muscles and the swimmerets (Wilkens et al, 1997b).
