Movements of molluscs by computer simulation

The movements of two kinds of molluscs (Paludina viviparus and Heliosoma (taphius) Nigricans) (in Argentina Biomphalaria tenagophila) performing feeding activities have been simulated by a digital computer. Successive positions of the organisms were determined by a computer program which was based o...

Description
Summary:	The movements of two kinds of molluscs (Paludina viviparus and Heliosoma (taphius) Nigricans) (in Argentina Biomphalaria tenagophila) performing feeding activities have been simulated by a digital computer. Successive positions of the organisms were determined by a computer program which was based on Rashevsky's (1973) Principle of Adequate Design.
