K$ and Cl- contents and the ratio of the fresh weight to dry weight of the abaxial halves of the main pulvini of Mimosa decreased after movement, but changes in the adaxial halves were not clear. Another experimental result showed that the solution ejected from the pulvinar cells flowed both toward the stem and the petiole. These transferred ions and water may flow back to the pulvinar cells during recovery.
