Abstract
Establishment of steady differences of 20 to 40 millimolar potassium ion acrossFucus eggs induces about 35% orientation of the rhizoidal poles toward the high potassium end. We argue that the potassium gradient acts by way of a transcytoplasmic voltage gradient. We describe a method for establishing known and steady concentration gradients across each of large numbers of developing cells. Establishment of steady hydrogen ion gradients acrossFucus eggs induces an orientation of the rhizoidal poles toward the more acid end. Per cent orientation equals 1.5 times per cent hydrogen ion gradient.
