The properties of motility and sensory organisation of unicellular organisms suggest that cells were able to utilise the resources of their fluid environment before they had developed senses for its exploration. Two principles of locomotion, helical

Summary Low concentrations (4 to 10 μM) of the trivalent cation gadolinium raised the input resistance and altered the membrane potential of Paramecium tetraurelia suggesting an interference with membrane channels. Current-clamp conditions revealed

Wild-type and the morphological mutant kin 241 of Paramecium tetraurelia showed improved orientation away from the centre of gravity (negative gravitaxis) when accelerations were increased from 1 to 7 g. Gravitaxis was more pronounced in the mutant.

We investigated the autotrophic flagellate Euglena gracilis for gravity-induced modulation of the speed of swimming as previously documented for larger protozoan cells. Methods of video-tracking of swimming and sedimenting cells under 1 g and hypergr

Effects of the density of the external medium on gravireception in Loxodes striatus were investigated using Percoll solutions. With increasing density, the swimming rates changed from prevailing in the downward direction to prevailing in the upward d

Cells of Loxodes striatus were adjusted to defined culturing, experimental solution O2-supply, temperature, and state of equilibration to be subjected to step type transition of acceleration from normal gravity, (1 g) to the weightless condition (mic

Summary Paramecium caudatum cells were fed with iron-particles to increase the density of the cytoplasm. The swimming speed and orientation of iron-fed and iron-free control cells were analyzed under terrestrial gravity and raised acceleration up to

Summary The gliding locomotion of Loxodes on solid surfaces is commonly curved in the counterclockwise direction. Experiments using K+-dependent modulation of the membrane potential showed that depolarization induced gliding tracks of clockwise curva

Summary Negative gravikinesis is an acceleration-activated modulation of vertical swimming velocity which can neutralize the passive sedimentation of ciliates. This paper investigates effects of swimming velocity levels on gravikinesis. Evaluation of
