One link here for the Marine Guys - ultra-sensitive brownbanded bamboo shark embryos can detect the presence of electric fields and slow their breathing / freezing whilst still in embronic stage. Cool eh!

Very cool. The part about response times sounds like the embryos are learning and remembering even before their brains are fully developed. Thanks for sharing!
