Supe-riorly the pri-mitive fibresare separatedfrom eachother; the glo-bules are blood-discs to serveas standards forthe estimationof their diame-ter. B, A pri-mitive muscu-lar fibre, to show how the transverse striae are produced, and that they may be ^eve-rally seen as 96 CILIAET MOTIONS. The peculiar motory phenomena that fall under this class wereknown to the older naturalists, but their more successful inves-tigation was reserved for our day. Ciliary motions may be most conveniently studied with themicroscope, on portions of the mucous membranes ; that fromthe mouth of the frog is most readily obtained, placed on aglass slide in a drop of water, then covered with a small pieceof thin glass, and viewed with a fourth or an eighth of an inch with certainty be shown in the circumference of the muscular fibres, prepared by hardening, &c. The intimate structure is excellentlydisplayed, both by Bowman and Henle, as also in the accompanying figures. Fig. 63. j ..
