Then the difference between the non-nucleated and the THE MECHANISM OF LIFE 511 nucleated pieces, appears, the former perishing, while the latter re-generate themselves into complete individuals. The behaviour of non-nucleated pieces of cells may, therefore, besummarised in the statement, that, after the passage of a stage ofexcitation caused by the stimulation of the operation, every piececontinues to carry out the movements peculiar to it in the uninjuredorganism and to react to stimuli in the same manner as before theoperation. The normal character of the movements is not changeduntil the appearance of the phenomena of necrobiosis, which affectthe non-nucleated protoplasm and lead to death. It ajjpears in
