Whether these vasifactive cells are new differentiations of the embryonic mesen- chyme or are budded off from the walls of existing capillaries which have grown in from extra-embryonic regions, is at present undecided.

They have been held by some observers to be the only source of the various forms of corpuscles that are found in the adult vessels, while others maintain that they give rise only to the red corpuscles, the leukocytes arising in tissues external to the blood-vessels and only secondarily making their way into them. According to this latter view the red and white corpuscles have a different origin and remain distinct throughout Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original McMurrich, J.
