At the sieve-plates the slimy contents are continuous through the pores from one member of the tube into the adjoining one. It may be seen, especially in callous plates, and â¢when coloured yellow with iodine, filling all the pores and demonstrating, like a natural injection, the open communication through them (Figs. 68, 74). Where however the size of the parts makes an exact investigation possible, it may be seen that it does not pass as a homogeneous mass equally from one member into the.
