- Abstract:
The article describes how protons behave within roundworm's bodies and how their role is crucial in the roundworm's defecation process. The protons travel from the intestines to receptors that are located on the surrounding muscle, causing the muscles to contract. This discovery supports the theory that protons play a role in transporting electrical signals throughout the human brain.
