Changes in cellular K and Na in Tetrahymena after dilution of normal medium. Ordinate: cellular K and Na concentrations ( cells); abscissa: time (minutes). Open symbols: Ki ; solid symbols: Nai. Initial Ki and Na( (diamonds) are averages of values in normal medium. Dilutions were made at zero time. The extents of the dilutions of normal medium in the three experiments were as follows: triangles, 6-fold dilution; circles, 8-fold dilution; squares,

Initial Ki and Na( (diamonds) are averages of values in normal medium. Dilutions were made at zero time. The extents of the dilutions of normal medium in the three experiments were as follows: triangles, 6-fold dilution; circles, 8-fold dilution; squares, 13-fold dilution. In order to demonstrate how intracellular K and Na are maintained over a range of medium concentrations, cells were allowed to equilibrate for at least 30 minutes in various dilutions of normal medium from two-fold to over 100-fold, the extreme dilution involving several distilled water washes.

Ordinate: cellular concentrations of K and Na ( cells); abscissas: concentrations of K and Na in the media. Open circles: Ki ; solid circles: Na,. a and b: ordinate intercepts of the linearly increasing portions of the Na and K curves, respectively. Points for Ki and Nai in normal and diluted media are taken from Figure Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
