Description
THE investigations described in the present volume have been an outcome of my work on the Similarity of Responsive Phenomena in Inorganic and Living Matter, first communicated as a Memoir to the Science Congress at Paris, in August 1900, and subsequently expanded into greater detail in my book on ' Response in the Living and Non-Living.' The electrical responses described in the Memoir referred to, had been obtained by the method of conductivity variation. The same problem was next attacked by a different mode of investigation, response being now obtained by electromotive variation.- Believing in the continuity of responsive phenomena in the inorganic and organic, I undertook on that occasion to demonstrate by the same method the electrical response of ordinary plants, and to show that every plant, and every organ of every plant, was excitable.
