Fig. 218 Induction of polarity in epidermis by underlying organiser. The direction of cilia-beat (indicated by arrows) of non-underlain epidermis is irregular and chaotic; that of epidermis underlain by organiser-tissue is regular and polarised. (From Holtfreter, Biol. Zentralbl. Liii, 1933.) rence: in the majority of cases, exogastrulation only proceeds to a certain point, and then the remainder of the endo-mesoderm is invaginated under the ectoderm. All gradations are to be found from a minimal invagination to a normal embryo. The first step is the presence of some blood- and yolk-cells in the ectodermic vesicle. When they are present, they induce a smooth two-layered epithelium, with normal tempo of differentiation, in place of the irregularly folded and wrinkled epidermis derived from wholly.
