It is no- ticeable that in this case the partition always forms parallel to the oldest wall of the divid- ing cell. By continued growth the apical cell retains, despite its repeated divisions, its origi- nal dimensions. 50.—The growing cells of the stem of the English bean ( Yicia faha) furnish a good illustration of fission in the highest plants. In this case, and in many other, if not all. Dicotyledons, the division takes place directly of the stem through the centrally placed of Baa/a6a, m process of fission; m » J r the cells a, a, the process is in its nuclCUS ia, Hlff. 28). Alter the earlier stage; at 6 it is completed.
