On the contrary, there is a continuous, if not constant, increase in respiratory rate with advance in embryological differentiation. Considering the differences in the two methods of measurement there is fairly good agreement between the results presented in Fig. 3 for the first two days after fertilization and those of Amberson and Armstrong. They found rates between to an4 to ml/day/1,000

On the contrary, there is a continuous, if not constant, increase in respiratory rate with advance in embryological differentiation. Considering the differences in the two methods of measurement there is fairly good agreement between the results presented in Fig. 3 for the first two days after fertilization and those of Amberson and Armstrong. They found rates between to an4 to ml/day/1,000 eggs for the first and second day, respectively. By appropriate change of .SO. FIG. 2. Oxygen consumption of developing Fundulus eggs. Figures adjacent to curve indicate time in hours after fertilization. units and by summation of graphically determined values for successive three-hour periods the present data give values of about and day/1,000 eggs. The Cyanide Sensitivity of Fundulus Respiration During the first six hours after fertilization the respiration of Fundulus eggs in M/1,000 NaCN solutions was found to be 32 per cent of the average normal respiration. In order to ascertain the cyanide- stable respiration of later stages, eggs were allowed to develop in normal sea water until the desired stages were reached. They were then placed.
