Calcium Uptake Data
}
\description{
The \code{calcium} data frame has 27 rows and 2 columns.


Howard Grimes from the Botany Department, North Carolina State University,
conducted an experiment for biochemical analysis of intracellular storage
and transport of calcium across plasma membrane.  Cells were
suspended in a solution of radioactive calcium for a certain length of time and
then the amount of radioactive calcium that was absorbed by the cells was
measured.  The experiment was repeated independently with 9 different
times of suspension each replicated 3 times.
