It has its soma in the abdominal neuromere and fasciculates with the abdominal nerve trunk and abdominal nerve of the uterus (Middleton et al., 2006; Cury and Axel, 2023). Its activity can cause contraction of the uterus and egg expulsion (Cury and Axel, 2023). There is one of these cells on each side (Cury and Axel, 2023). adult VNC neuron cell body rind of adult abdominal neuromere egg-laying behavior
