| galvanotaxis | <physiology> The directed movement of cells induced by an applied voltage. This movement is almost always directed toward the cathode, occurs at fields around 1 mV/mm and is argued to be involved in cell guidance during morphogenesis and in the repair of wounds. The term galvanotropism is used for neurons, since the cell body remain stationary and the neurites grow toward the cathode. Note that these processes involve cell locomotion and are distinct from cell electrophoresis. (18 Nov 1997) |

| galvanism |
In biology, galvanism is the contraction of a muscle that is stimulated by an electric current. The effect was named by Alessandro Volta after his contemporary, the scientist Luigi Galvani, who investigated the effect of electricity on dissected animals in the 1780s and 1790s. Galvani himself referred to the phenomenon as animal electricity, believing that he had discovered a distinct form of electricity. ...

| galvanization |
Galvanization refers to any of severay electrochemical processes named after the Italian scientist Luigi Galvani.# Originally, galvanization was the administration of electric shocks (in the 19th century also termed Faradism, after Michael Faraday). It stemmed from Galvani's induction of twitches in severed frogs' legs, by his accidental generation of electricity. This archaic sense is the origin of the meaning of galvanized when meaning 'stirred to sudden action'. ...

| galvanometer |
It measures skin responses to ad stimuli like perspiration by gland activity through palm. More perspiration decreases the resistance and faster current passes. The tension is generated. The greater it is, the more effective the ad is. The technique is of limited use for ads of a very sensitive nature.
