AB  - In four experiments, the factors that affect the rate of habituation, the degree 
      of habituation, and the rate of recovery from habituation in a simple reflex 
      circuit in Caenorhabditis elegans were investigated. The results showed that 
      habituation was more pronounced and faster, and that recovery from habituation 
      was more rapid, with short interstimulus intervals (ISIs) than with longer ISIs. 
      Rate of recovery differed in animals that had reached asymptotic response levels 
      when compared with animals still in the descending portion of the habituation 
      curve. Once animals reached asymptotic response levels, rate of recovery appeared 
      to be determined by ISI and not by additional stimuli.
