But however variousour interpretations of the finer structure of protoplasm, theyagree that any bit of protoplasm is a viscous colloidal masscomposed of at least two substances of somewhat different phys-ical make-up. One of these substances is evidently denser thanthe other and is arranged in the form of grains, rods, threads,or droplets scattered through a ground mass. Concerning thisdimorphic condition of protoplasm practically all biologists areagreed. The names, hyaloplasm, paraplasm, or others of sim- LIFE, ITS PHYSICAL BASIS AND SIMPLEST EXPRESSION 29 ilar significance are applied to the viscous hyaline groundsubstance, while the denser parts are variously called micro-somes, granules, fibrils, spongioplasm, etc. The important part of all this is the fact that all the biologistsare not agreed on any certain kind of intimate structure of B. iS2^&9 ruiWtHV%Sn> i®jfe : • -V • - ; A-. ^,, .
