Abstract
We present a study of dynamics of an instability generating ionic loop in living organisms. This instability is based on concentration sensi tivities of channels and pumps present in membranes. We establish the dispersion relation and we evaluate this number. We show that the homo geneous mode is unstable. We discuss implications of such a mode for m orphogenesis.
