To test the hypothesis that a sleep-like quiescent state enhances memory consolidation in pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis, we interposed period which snails experienced either quiescent, sleeping or an active, non-sleeping following escape behavior suppression learning (EBSL). During EBSL training, number of escapes made by from container was significantly suppressed using external aversive stimulus (punishment). After were divided into two groups. One group allowed to move freely and experience for 3 h distilled water. The other stimulated with sucrose solution every 10 min keep them active (i.e., non-sleeping). In test, state, whereas not observed kept active. Additionally, latency first shorter than those state. Together, these data are consistent L. stagnalis.
