We have already seen that the bl« od and the vessels in which it flows have a common origin in the mesoblastic cells of the embryo chick ; the same applies to mammals and lower groups. The main facts may be grouped under two head- ings : 1. Development of the blood-corpuscles during embry- onic Kfe. 2. Development of the corpuscles in post-embryonic life. The origin and fate of the corpuscles, especially of the colored variety, have been the subject of much discussion. * The best established facts are stated in the summary below, while they are illustrated by the accompanying fig- ures. The colorless cells of the blood first arise as migrated undifPeren- tiated remnants of the early embryonic cell colonies. That they re- main such is seen by their physiological be- havior, to be cqpsidered a little later. Afterward they are chiefly pro- duced from a peculiar Fig. l«.-8nTf«ce view from below of a «niallppr- f^j.^ ^f connective tis- tion of potteriorend of pellucid area of a chicV *"*"* "^ **oi,i»,^ „ of thirty-«ixhourB,l x 400 (Foster and Balfour), gue knOWn aS leucocy- 6. c, blood-corpuaclea; o, nuclei, wlilch iubee- . , u- v. • qnently become nuclei of cells forming walls of tenic, and wnicn 18 ^^STnuiie'l^^tkfCS'u^l^*'""' gathered into organs (lymphatic glands), the chief function of which is to produce these cells, though this is rather widely distributed in the mammalian body in other forms than these.
