Figure 6. Behavioral results.

Figure 6

A. Average behavioral investigation times in saline and MK801 infused rats over the course of the behavioral experiment. Saline-injected control rats responded significantly less on the fourth habituation trial as compared to the first trial (* indicates a significant difference between responses during the first and fourth trial), whereas MK-801 infused rats did not significantly habituate, as indicated by a non-significant difference between investigation times during the fourth and first trials. B. Blockade of bulbar NMDA receptors does not impair odor detection. The graph shows the average investigation times of saline-infused and MK-801 infused rats presented with the mineral oil carrier during four trials followed by a single odor presentation. All rats responded significantly more to the odor than to the carrier alone, indicating that they detected the odorant.
