Developmental MeHg exposure is associated with time-dependent decline in swimming speed. Synchronized L1 stage N2 worms were exposed with various concentrations of MeHg for 48 h. Following exposure, adult stage worms were recorded for swimming speed. a, swimming speed of day 1 adult worms during a 300 s recording period. Left panel: the average swimming speed during 0-5 s. Middle panel: the average swimming speed during 150-155 s. Right panel: the average swimming speed during 295-300 s. b, swimming speed of day 5 adult worms. c. swimming speed on day 10 adult worms. For comparison, all speed data was converted to absolute values before analysis. Analyses were made with one-way ANOVA and Tukey’s multiple comparisons test. * p<0.05; ** p<0.01; *** p<0.001.
