Ordinate, lactic acid per embryo per hour, 24° C. explicitly by Figure 9, and is implicit in the data of Figure 8 and Figure 11. Simi- lar results were reported by A. I. Cohen (1954). Glycogen A total of six clutches of homogenized R. pipicus embryos have been system- atically assayed to establish the relation between age and glycolytic activity in the presence of exogenous glycogen. The results are collected in Figure 4. The de- velopmental patterns of glycolysis exhibited are variable, especially those of homoge- nates from embryos younger than 80 to 90 hours (standard age). Perhaps the best generalization that the data will support is that the glycolytic rate falls off dur- ing the transition from fertilized egg to tailbud embryo, and then rises again during the remainder of pre-hatching development. The variability exhibited probably is not an artifact of the experimental procedures to which the homogenates were subjected, but more likely is due to uncontrollable non-uniformity in the prepara- tion of homogenates or to intrinsic variability in the clutches themselves. Embryos of two of these clutches were controls for hybrid embryos, with which they are compared in Figures 5 and 6. Clearly, the subnormal glycolytic rates of intact hybrids (L. G. Earth, 1946; Gregg, 1962) are not characteristic of their ho- mogenates. It appears, therefore, that they have a normal complement of the en-.
