a) A simple assay to measure negative phototaxis in planarians. Worms are released in chamber 1 either in the dark or in bright room light, while chamber 2 is kept in constant darkness. b) Both controls and experimental animals avoid the light, and efficiently escape into the dark chamber (chamber 2). Outer boxes = +- STD; Inner boxes = 95% Confidence Interval.
