The Physiological Aspects of Development. According to that law of rhythm which, js we have seen, prevails throughout the world of animated nature, there are periods of growth and progress, of quietude and arrest of devel- opment ; and in vertebrates one of the most pronounced epochs —in fact, the most marked of all—is that by which the young organism, through a series of rapid stages, attains to sexual maturity. While the growth and development of the generative or- gans share to the greatest degree in this progress, other parts of the body and the entire being participate. So great is the change that it is common to indicate, in the case of the human subject, the developed organism by a new name—the " boy " becomes the " man," the " girl" the " ; Relatively this is by far the most rapid and general of all the transformations the organism undergoes during its extra-uter- ine life. In this the entire body takes part, but very unequally. The increase in s
