Abstract

The rate at which the cleavage stimulus moves from the mitotic apparatus to the cell surface was calculated from measurements made on flattened, fertilized Echinarachnius parma eggs with excentric nuclei. The time interval between the appearance of furrows in the closer and more distant equatorial margins is proportional to the difference in the distance between the axis of the mitotic apparatus and the two surfaces. The calculated rate of stimulus movement is 6.3 Β± 1.8 ΞΌ/minute. This rate is slower than that of free diffusion, and the usually studied examples of cytoplasmic streaming; it approximates that reported for microtubule growth.

The effect of change in intracellular pH (pHi) on mitosis was investigated in the sand dollar egg. The pHi in the fertilized egg of Scaphechinus mirabilis and Clypeaster japonicus, which was 7.34 and 7.31, respectively, changed by means of treating the egg at nuclear envelope breakdown with sea wate

## Abstract The effects of changes in the yen/dollar exchange rate on the Korean economy during the pre‐crisis and the post‐crisis periods are examined using VAR models. The results show that Korean industrial production does not respond significantly to the depreciation of the Japanese yen against
