## Abstract In general, the changes of locomotor rate of Amoeba under the influence of temperature are similar to the effects of temperature in other biological processes. The rate increases with rising and decreases with falling temperatures within a certain temperature range, this being, for the
## Abstract Amoeba responds to a mechanical shock by a cessation of movement which occurs shortly after the application of the stimulus. The length of the reaction time, the period intervening between application of stimulus and the response, varies inversely with the magnitude of the shock. After
## Abstract The rate of locomotion in Amoeba proteus is dependent upon the nature of the substratum, the nature of the different divalent and monovalent cations present, and the ratio of the amount of the monovalent cations to the amount of calcium or strontium. Calcium is more efficient than stron
