Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ameboid Movement The manner of movement common to amebas has attracted the attention of biologists ever since the discovery of ameba by Rose] v Rosenhof in 1755. In his description of Der kleine Proteus he records the observation that the various form changes which the ameba undergoes are associated with the streaming of the endoplasm. This observation marks the very beginning of the investigation of ameboid movement.
