Gravireceptors in eukaryotes—a comparison of case studies on the cellular level
Abstract We have selected five evolutionary very different biological systems ranging from unicellular protists via algae and higher plants to human cells showing responses to the gravity vector of the Earth in order to compare their graviperception mechanisms. All these systems use a mass, which ma...
