The phenomenon of cephalization. Part five

Nerve processes react to the stretching and compression of surrounding cells. Perhaps they are primarily directed to the most active areas of the face and body, to a kind of "hot spots" of the body. In some cases, it is difficult to distinguish innate behavior (instinct, "hereditary memory") in higher animals from the acquired. There is a whole gamut of constant transitions between the two. Some reactions (for example, in cubs to the squeaking of mice, in puppies to meat) after the first reinforcement persist for life. Other reflexes are formed only after repeated reinforcements and persist for a short time.

Young dogs who have not tasted meat in childhood do not want to eat it. However, after force-feeding, the desire appears. This means that the reflex is caused by some deep, "unconscious" mechanisms that "remembered" meat, but the senses — sight, smell, touch — did not retain such a memory. Some physiologists are convinced that with prolonged repetition, the conditioned reflex, based on the personal experience of the animal, becomes unconditional, inherited. It is difficult to talk about the mechanism of such a transition.


It is possible that it is associated with changes in the protein molecules of cells and with the effect on the fetus of the mother's body. This is like "fetal education" by the mother using signals transmitted in the form of peculiar protein structures or electrical influences.

This can happen with the loss of hereditary information, when a certain trait is not fixed from generation to generation. Isn't this the reason for the progressive lop-eared behavior of domestic animals and some other features that distinguish them from their wild counterparts? Well, if such subtle qualities of the brain apparatus can be inherited, then the idea of inheriting other, more grossly acquired traits does not seem implausible. The discussion on this topic continues, with hundreds of thousands of pages devoted to it, and hundreds of studies. But there is no definitive answer. For different organisms, the ability to inherit individual qualities can be very different. A lot depends on the qualities themselves. Each species has a number of characteristic features of structure and behavior, which are very stable and almost not subject to random changes. This kind of structure primarily includes the nervous system. Less fundamental features (body shape, amount of hair and their color, etc.), on the contrary, are very variable, just as in cars, with wide variability in body shape and color, the main details change purposefully, naturally.
