Excerpt from The Bio-Chemical Journal, 1909, Vol. 4 Experimental evidence of this persistence of relationship to light of all cells exists of two kinds; there is first the deleterious effects of complete withdrawal of light for prolonged periods, and the necessity of sunlight. For healthy existence; and, secondly, there is the direct evidence of the effects of application of strong light to animal cells seen in the Finsen effects, and in other forms of radiant energy allied to light. It is, however, in the more lowly organized types of both animal and vegetable organisms that the strongest and most direct reactions to light are observable - apart from the particular case of the reaction of chemical synthesis in the chlorophyll-containing cells of the green parts of the higher plants. Examples of this reactivity are seen in the effects of sunlight upon nearly all types of bacteria; in the sudden outburst of vegetable life in the form of diatoms in the spring of each year as the length of the day increases and the more vertical light reaches and penetrates the water before there is much increase in the temperature of the sea - an outburst upon which the whole life of the sea is as thoroughly dependent as that of the terrestrial world is upon the similar outburst of activity in land plants; and in the most marked movements which occur towards or from the light according to varying circumstances of the minute organisms, either larval or adult, which chiefly constitute the plankton or floating life of the ocean.
