Abstract
The speed of progression of this water mite was influenced by light, and over a certain range varied as a function of the light intensity. Both amplitude of stride and frequency of stepping varied with the intensity of illumination but in different proportions. These results support the muscle tonus theory upheld by Loeb and others.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
