Towards the end of the fifth and in the course of the sixth day further important changes take place in the heart. The venous end with its two very conspicuous auricular appendages, comes to be situated more above (dorsal to) the arterial end, though it still turns rather towards the left. The venous portion of the heart undergoes on the sixth day or even near to the end of the fifth, such a development of the muscular fibres of its walls, that the canalis auricularis becomes almost entirely concealed. The point of the heart is now rj'.
