✦ Synopsis

The luminiscent response to stimulation of sinall pieces of Mfiemiopsis leidyi tissue exhibits striking resemblances to certain aspects of muscle response (Chang, '54). The staircase phenomenon or "treppe" and summation of flashes result when the luminous tissue is stimulated at certain frequencies. So close are resemblances between the response characteristics of these two systems that the question has 'This research was supported in part by funds of the Eugene Higgins Trust

With imidazole‐osmium postfixation, one achieves comparable results in high elect

This paper focuses on the classical problem of comparison of treatment effects. We show that we can base a simple and intuitive approach to comparison of two treatments on the proportion of similar responses. This approach is equivalent to the standard comparison of the treatment means in the normal
