B and C showing involution of the surface along the invagination-groove. processes are at work (1) Involution of the surface—this is conspicu- ous in the first stages (see Fig. 22, B and C), (2) Overgrowth by the gastrular lip—the " dorsal" lip as it is commonly termed from its ultimate position, and (3) Delamination. These same three factors are at work in the gastrulation of the lower Vertebrates in general, and a clear realizing of their nature is necessary to a comprehension.
