A cross-section of an embryo at this stage, in the region which isultimately to form the dorsal region of the chick, would show thestructure diagrammatically represented in Fig. 30. Fig. Cross-section of an Embryo in the Dorsal Region soon after the first appearance of the medul-lary folds (diagrammatic): g, medullary groove; in, m, medullary folds; n, notochord; I,peripheral plates of mesoblast; ep, epiblast; h, hypoblast. (The shading of the figure isvery diagrammatic.) In Fig. 31 is represented a later stage of development. The medul-lary folds have risen higher and begun to bend over toward one another. Fig. 31.
