Abstract
A review of some factors concerned in the turnover and the content of water in living organisms as wholes. The chief experiments described are on frogs and man; what is known in a comparable way on other species of animals and plants is mentioned, with emphasis on the relationships to osmotic pressure or vapor pressure of the environment. Some of the graphs and tables represent experiments hitherto unpublished. The bibliography has 68 titles.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
