The subject of these histological researches is (as Heidenhainpoints out) not the living cell, but its dead body, altered, moreover,by the technique of hardening and staining. Yet, since thephenomena are so constant, we may safely conclude that theliving cells also are differently constituted in the resting and inthe active state, owing to the manufacture of secretion.
