Disease_model_descriptionFractal scaling in animal behavioral activity, where similar temporal patterns appear repeatedly over a series of magnifcations among time scales, governs the complex behavior of various animal species and, in humans, can be altered by neurodegenerative diseases and aging. In studies of temporal patterns of C. elegans activity, an exponential-like decline appeared with nutrient supply (glucose) in wild-type animals, indicating that insulin signaling may be involved in regulation of fractal scaling of C. elegans behavior.
