Fossil uncovers early evolution of animal nervous system
Scientists have unraveled the evolutionary history of the ventral nerve cord in ecdysozoan animals, revealing that the common ancestor likely possessed a single ventral nerve cord. Paired nerve cords in arthropods, loriciferans, and kinorhynchs likely evolved independently, enhancing movement coordination.
