The embryo is formed at the deepestportion of this invagination. The amnion is produced by the growing togetherin an hour-glass-Uke formation of the invagination over the back of theembryo; the remaining portion next the original implantation of the heap ofcells becoming the chorion and finally a part of the placenta. Here, too, theremaining portion of the ectoderm in Raubers layer does not apparently become
