“In the case of the stomach, however, the nerves of the glandular cells were always severed when constructing an artificially isolated pouch and this, naturally, affected the normal work of the stomach.”
About This Quote
Source Book: Conditioned Reflexes, Ivan Pavlov, 1927
Severing nerves in a stomach pouch disrupts its normal function because neural input controls gland activity.
In simple terms: Cutting nerves stops stomach cells working right.
