Zusammenfassung

Junge Gewebe von Ratten zeigen eine grössere Empfindlichkeit gegenüber verschiedenen Konzentrationen von Atmungsinhibitoren als alte Gewebe. Ähnliche Resultate wurden bei der Einwirkung derselben Inhibitoren auf junge und alte Blätter von Tomatenpflanzen erzielt. Die Unterschiede sind statistisch signifikant. Es wird angenommen, dass keine neuen metabolischen Systeme während des Lebens eines Organismus gebildet werden, sondern dass während des Alterns nur eine Verschiebung im Gleichgewicht dieser Systeme eintritt.
