Nervous system simulation predicts that AUA and RMG neurons are in the AWB neuron-mediated learned reflexive aversion circuit. A Activity of AUA neurons (rows) upon 5.0 nA stimulation of AWB neurons and 0.9 nA stimulation of the CIs in the Neural Interactome. B Activity of RMG neurons (rows) upon 5.0 nA stimulation of AWB neurons and 0.9 nA stimulation of the CIs in the Neural Interactome. C Updated circuit diagram and stimulation protocol schematic showing the connections between AWB, AUA, RMG, AVA, AVD, AVE, VA, DA, AS, VD, and DD neurons. The first neuron of each motor neuron class was chosen for ease of visualization. Arrows represent chemical synapses, while jagged lines represent electrical synapses. D Activity of motor neurons (rows) upon 5.0 nA stimulation of AWB neurons and 0.9 nA stimulation of the CIs with AUA neurons ablated in the Neural Interactome. E Activity of motor neurons (rows) upon 5.0 nA stimulation of AWB neurons and 0.9 nA stimulation of the CIs with RMG neurons ablated in the Neural Interactome
