Hemorrhagewhen the cord is .severed is prevented by the contrac-tion of the arteries, rendered possible by their lack ofelastic tissue and abun-dance of muscle.

Since the vitreous humorhas been found to be of ectodermal origin, it has recentlybeen removed from this group. Whartons jelly is still crated (Fig, 4836). The stimulus causing the contrac-tion is the tearing, of the cord, which in cows accom-panies the expulsion of the. fatus, in carnivora is ac-complished by biting and in swine partly by trampling.
