Not illustrated. 1894 Excerpt: . expliquer cette structure par le melange de deux liquides. Quelques specieuses que puissent paraitre ses donnees, je m'elkve contre cette interpretation. Le protoplasma est une substance vivante, hautement structure, dont la constitution est le resultat d'une avolution particuliere, qui ne saurait avoir rien de commun avec ces mixtures. Comparer ces deux ordres de faits me parait aussi inutile, au point de vue de la comprehension rt5elle de cette structure, que de comparer une Meduse h une ombrelle, une Oursin a une pelote d'epingles, ou certains Bryozoaires a de la dentelle. Ce sont la des jeux d'hasard, amenant des apparences plus ou moins analogues sans qu'il y ait aucun autre point commun." On the ground already mentioned, it may be worth while to subject the unfavourable opinion expressed in this passage with reference to my experiments to a more detailed criticism. The quintessence of Kunstler's train of reasoning is, as he himself says, that protoplasm is a "living, highly structured substance, the constitution of which is, the result of a special development." As regards, in the first place, the significance of protoplasm as "living" substance, I am naturally as strongly convinced of this as Kiinstler himself; on the other hand, our paths evidently diverge when it comes to explaining the peculiar manifestations of activity which distinguish protoplasm and make it a living, as opposed to a not-living substance. Since Kiinstler begins his refutation of my views by laying emphasis on the fact that protoplasm is living, he evidently belongs to that not inconsiderable number of biologists who eagerly carry on investigations upon life and its products, and yet do not welcome a successful attempt to get nearer to the actual causes .<
