(From Wilson, after SchewiakofT.) process, though a spindle is constituted within, and chromosomes are formed and split: the division of the nucleus takes place, however, by simple constriction, as seen in the Filose Ehizopod Eughjpha (Fig. 8). In many Sarcodina and some Sporozoa the nucleus gives off small fragments into the cytoplasm, or is resolved into them; 1 The fact that it is by mitotic division that the undiffei^ntiated germ-cells produce the "differentiated" tissue-cells of the body of the highest animals, is again irreconcilable with such theories, whose chief advocates have been A.
