The physiology of the circulation in plants : in the lower animals, and in man : being a course of lectures delivered at surgeons' hall to the president, fellows, etc of the Royal college of surgeons of Edinburgh, in the summer of 1872 . sorption, endosmose, exosmose, capillary attraction,chemical affinity, eA^aporation, etc. The heart and bloodvessels,when they exist, are employed for transmitting the nutritious fluidsthrough long distances, in order to bring the blood and other juicesface to face with the tissues, the constituent elements of which areso arranged that each takes—or one might almost say, has forcedupon it, by the physical forces referred to—those particular in-gredients which are best adapted for its development, maintenance,and reproduction. The object of these remarks is to show that theplacental circulation of mammals is substantially the same as thatof the tissues generally. The ovum is extruded from what may beregarded a mucous surface, viz., the interior of the ovary. It isgrasped by the fimbriated extremity of the Fallopian tube, as by ahand extended to receive it, and conveyed to the interior of theuterus, in the mucous lining of which it is literally planted (, b).
