Fig. 6. Relative fluid shear stress and acceleration at the position
(X0, Y0) of stimulated cells of
Lingulodinium polyedrum (closed symbols) and Ceratocorys
horrida (open symbols). Relative values were calculated as the ratio of
the flow parameter at the position of a stimulated cell to the maximum value
of that parameter for any Y at that downstream
(X0) position in the flow field. Boxes and circles are for
relative shear stress and acceleration, respectively. Values represent means
± S.E.M. for approximately 40 cells at each flow
condition.
