Olfactory
receptor neurons
Deutocerebrum receives sensory input from
mechano- and chemosensory receptor neurons
on the antennae and sends motor signal to
muscles of the antennae.
Chemosensory input goes to the antennal lobe
(AL) neuropil, while the antennal
mechanosensory and motor center (AMMC)
receives the mechanoreceptor input and sends
motor information out
The female
reproductive system
consists of a pair of
ovaries, vagina,
