It is not necessary therefore at present that an attemptshould be made further to trace examples of proenvironalreaction as a great evolutionary factor that has worked through- Law of Proenvironment 24 1 out the entire series of the higher Metazoa. For most of thiresponses or actions shown by such animals are wholly dueto efferent proenvironal stimuli which start as summatedresponses to simpler stimuli that have passed in from ^^thout,and which guide—we might
