TLN zebrafish did not show significant differences in swimming behavior, escape response, or escape response latency, suggesting that it is possible that visual queues play a role in the formation of dominant/subordinate relationships, and in turn would affect the neurological sensitivity of the escape pathway when exposed to a threatening auditory stimulus.application/pdfZebrafish, Visual queuesHonors Thesis2017-06-14
