Object recognition impairments. At 17 wai, all mice were tested on object recognition tasks to recognize placement and identity of objects. (a) ME7-SE, NBH-A, and ME7-A did not distinguish displaced from stationary objects. All other groups succeeded in this task. (b) In the object identity recognition task, except for ME7-A, all groups recognized the identity of the objects (, ; two-tailed -tests).
