SENSIBILITY OF VOLVOX TO SPECTRAL LIGHTS 367 



chemical reactions and the nature of the photosensitive sub- 

 stances, and, (c) because recent work on the visibihty of radiation 

 for the normal and color-blind eye shows that the maximum 

 effect is not at the wave-lengths indicated by earlier work.
