Soon the nuclei thus formed retreat from the centre of the embryo, and arrange themselves in a single layer close to the surface (d) : around. 7W Vu,. gi.—Two stages in the early development of tlie Crayfish. Ill pL the products of division of the nucleus {iitt) are seen in the centre of the yolk ; in ]J the nuclei have become arranged in a' peripheral layer, each sur. rounded by protoplasm, so as to form the blastoderm. (From Parker and Haswell's Zoology^ after Worin.) each of these protoplasm accumulates, the central part of the embryo consisting entirely of yolk-material. '\\^e thus get a. superficial segineittatioii, 'Aitd by a central mass of yolk and a superficial layer of cells collectively known as the blastoderm. From this the ectoderm and endoderm are derived, the latter enclosing a relatively small enteron com- municating with the exterior through a blastopore (p. 201). Very soon the embryo becomes triploblastic, or three- layered, by the budding off of cells from the endoderm in the neighbourhood of the blastopore : these accumulate between the ectoderm and endoderm, and constitute the mesoderm. • Pkact.
