Comparison of the rate of appearance of the first three cleavage planes (I., II., and III.) in normal eggs (O), and in eggs allowed to de- velop in Embryo-water (A). The abscissa shows the number of minutes from insemination to the appearance of the furrow in 50 per cent, of the eggs. The ordinate gives the cleavages. indicate that inhibiting substances had accumulated in the water. Vernon ('95) found that larvae grown in water in which other larvae had previously developed were seven per cent, smaller than normal, showing that some of the products of metabolism exert a deleterious effect on growth, but he found that urea and uric acid caused increase in size. He states that a small excess of carbon dioxide stimulated growth, but Haywood ('27) has found that excess of carbon dioxide delays the appearance of the first furrow. In Fig. 2 the average rate of growth in length of the plutei, measuring from the base of the body to the tip of one of the anal.
