The con-stants of the curves of protoplasmic resistance are designated as -K^^p(corresponding to .K, ) and Z^^p (corresponding to K^f)- The curves ofprotoplasmic resistance may show less inhibition at the start than thoseof net resistance. ^^ See page 151. 222 INJURY, EECOVERY, AND DEATH amount of decrease corresponds to the amount of a hypo-thetical salt compound (Na4XCa). This is also true inthe case of protoplasmic resistance, as shown in Fig. ^^It would therefore appear that we arrive at the sameconclusions whether we study net resistance or protoplas-mic resistance.

It should be emphasized that this general conclusionwould remain valid in case it should be found that thevalues given here for Cp and Cw are incorrect. Thereseems to be no doubt that the value of Cw is constantunder the conditions of these experiments and as long as A rough calc
