The metatarso-phalangeal joints of the human foot all incline outwards from the great toe, due to the direction of the pressure upon them. This outward inclination gives breadth to the foot. In the foot of the ape the metatarso-phalangeal joints all incline in the Palm of apSand, showing Same direction tegumental^ folds. ' ° as the metacarpo- phalangeal joints in its hand. The foot is consequently clenched like a fist.
