. Eight lectures on the signs of life from their electrical aspect. Electrophysiology. The current of a Daniel cell is from copper to zinc through the galvanometer, and from zinc to copper in the cell itself. Fig. 7, A nerve current is from unin- jured to injured spot through the galvanometer, and from injured to uninjured spot in the nerve itself. The injured spot is "zinca- ; motive like the zinc of a voltaic couple"; zinc is, as we all know, negative as to its external relation by its pole, and electro- positive as to its internal relation in the cell.

Current in the cell is from zinc to copper, in the tissue from more active to less active; an active tissue-element is electro-positive to a resting tissue element, or (under protest) an active tissue element is u.
