In the American lobster, endogenous morphine is found in the haemolymph and ventral nerve cord. In lobsters which have had a pereiopod (walking leg) cut off or been injected with the irritant lipopolysaccharide, the endogenous morphine levels initially increased by 24% for haemolymph and 48% for the nerve cord.

The scholars Isaac Rabinowitz, Israel Ephʿal, Jan Retsö, and David F.

The human brain contains 86 billion neurons, with 16 billion neurons in the cerebral cortex. [ 2 ] [ 1 ] Neuron counts constitute an important source of insight on the topic of neuroscience and intelligence : the question of how the evolution of a set of components and parameters (~10 11 neurons, ~10 14 synapses) of a complex system leads to ...
A lobster is heavily cephalized, with eyes, antennae, multiple mouthparts, and the brain (inside the armoured exoskeleton), all concentrated at the animal's head end. Cephalization is an evolutionary trend in animals that, over a sufficient number of generations, concentrates the special sense organs and nerve ganglia towards the front of the ...
However, a lobster's brain operates from not one but several ganglia, and disabling only the frontal ganglion does not usually result in death. [82] Lobsters can be killed by electrocution prior to cooking with a device called the CrustaStun. [83] Another method of rendering a lobster unconscious, chilling, has not been found to be effective. [81]
Dalí had already introduced the lobster as an erotic symbol in his 1936 surrealist object “Lobster Telephone,” and the following year, Schiaparelli offered him a new kind of blank canvas ...
Red Lobster filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Florida in May. Here's a complete list of the company's restaurant locations that are open and closed. A fifth of Red Lobsters are gone.
