Thus at this time all of the blood is mixed together in the sinus venosus, viz., that re- ceived through the ducts of Cuvier, presumably venous, and that received through the meatus venosus, pre- sumably arterial, owing to its circulation in the superficial vascular network of the yolk- sac. Apparently there is no arrangement for separation or discrimination in the re- distribution of the blood.

On the sixth day the embryonic circulation enters on a second phase, owing to the changes in the structure of the heart and arrangement of the vessels described in detail in the preceding part of this chapter. On the eighth day the circulation is as follows: The right and left ventricles are completel
