Abstract

The rate of contraction of the contractile vacuole was used as an indicator of water uptake by Paramecium caudatum. Water uptake by deciliated paramecia was found to be about half that of the controls. Normal rate returned with the regeneration of the cilia.

## Abstract We investigate proton transport in a polymer electrolyte membrane using continuum theory and molecular dynamics (MD) computer simulations. Specifically our goal is to understand the possible molecular origin of the effect of water content on the activation energy (AE) and pre‐exponentia
