[Reactivity of neurons of the orbito-frontal cortex of the cat during exposure to the scent or sight of food].

Reactivity of neurones in orbitofrontal cortex of the cat to the action of light or sound was studied in consecutive stages of alimentary behaviour conditioned by the smell and then the sight of food. Changes were found of the character of neuronal reactions to the light and sound stimuli at the change of smell to the sight of food. A conclusion is drown, that polysensory properties of the neurones of the orbitofrontal cortex provide integral organization of brain sensory function at separate stages of alimentary behaviour.
