Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into how water, as a crucial component of protoplasm, determines many characteristics of living organisms. The author discusses the physical properties of protoplasm, focusing on its osmotic relationships with its surroundings. The permeability of the cell membrane, or Plasmahaut, in governing the exchange of substances between the cell and its environment is explored. Specific examples of salt effects on living cells are used to demonstrate the importance of qualitative composition of the surrounding medium. The book highlights the close relationship between the molecular structure of protoplasm and the physiological functions of cells, emphasizing the critical role of surface tension and chemical composition in determining cell behavior and responses to stimuli. It ultimately underscores the significance of understanding these relationships for comprehending the fundamental mechanisms of life.
