Abstract
Data are presented which demonstrate that the laser light scattered from the protoplasm of living algae cells is Doppler shifted by the streaming motion of the macromolecules and particles in the protoplasm. The laser-light-scattering spectra are used to determine the velocities and velocity distributions inside the cells.Keywords
