A factor of 1.082 permits reciprocal magnitudes after cell gains in 36 selected worm pairs

We tested whether cell-specific stimulation and calcium gains can explain directional response magnitudes under symmetric transfer. We linked the Randi WT atlas to two adult Witvliet anatomy maps. At q below 0.05 and at least three occurrences per direction, 37 anatomy-linked pairs remained. One had opposite signs. The 36 same-sign pairs had only two independent cycles. A linear program and matching numerical certificates showed that a multiplicative change of at most 1.081936 per response is necessary and sufficient to permit reciprocal magnitudes after arbitrary positive cell gains. The electrical-linked subset had the same bound and one cycle. Requiring anatomy support in both adults removed all same-sign cycles, so magnitudes in that subset cannot test this model. No measured response-error bound was available in this analysis. The result does not establish biological nonreciprocity or direct electrical rectification. Different animals, pooled responses and indirect paths limit interpretation. Code, hashes, pair tables, certificates and a figure support reproduction.

    Uses its published data-source and label cautions as context. No code or tables reused; tests cycle consistency rather than count orders.
