title: Gravitational biology experiments aboard the biosatellites "COSMOS" # 1887 and # 2044.
abstract: A number of experiments have been carried out in space flight using Protozoans, cell cultures, plants, flat worms, insects and amphibians. No qualitative, strictly unfavorable effects of microgravity could be detected. Microgravity may only slightly stimulate or inhibit some biological processes.
