This should in many cases be a curved line, provided the pure solu-tions are not equally toxic. But in the present case the curvature would besmall, and at the maximum point of the curve very small indeed. Thisline expresses the additive effect; , the effect which would be producedif there were no antagonism, and each component of the solution actedindependently. (See page 72). ^^ See page 48. ANTAGONISM 1G5 130 PER CENT 100. NaCiIOOHCi 0 Fig. 71.—AntagoniBm curve of Laminaria aaardhii in NaCl M, in HCI M, and inmixtures of these. The ordinateB represent net electrical resistance (expressed as per cent, ofthe normal net resistance); the abscissae represent the molecular proportions in the mix-tures. Thus NaCl 50, HCI 50 means a mixture of NaCl M and HCI M in suchproportions that 50% of the dissolved molecules is NaCl and 50% is HCI. Each curve repre-sentB a single experiment. Ail readings were taken at 18° C. or corrected to this temperature. A reading taken at the end of 18 hours showed that thetissue was dead in all the solutions. The plants can bekept alive much longer than this in mixtures of NaCl +CaCls; it is also noteworthy that the degree of antagon- 1G6 INJUEY, RECOVERY, AND DEATH ism, as shown by the electrical resistance, is greater inNaCl + CaClo than in NaCl + HCl.^* The hypothesis was further
