. Electro-physiology . FIG. 21S.—Schema of current diffusion in a "; (Griinhagen.) current. This is shown by the accompanying schema (Fig. 217), where it is seen that the extrapolar branches of current led off from opposite sides of the conductor must necessarily be hetero- dromous. On the other hand, this does not occur either in the nerve or in any of the models described above. Whatever the position of the galvanometer electrodes, the current led off is invari- ably homodromous with the polarising current. The sole essential condition is that the axis of a moist conduct
