The microscope and its revelations. s into two halves, a and a; C, cell insame stage, showing contraction of endoplasni(produced by addition of wateri into two sepa-rate masses round the two segments of originalnucleus; D, two complete cells within mother-cell, divided by a partition. imbedded in its residual endoplasm, cadi proceeding to complete itself as a cell by theformation of a limiting wall of eellullose (fig 414). As a newgeneration in any phanerogamic plant has its origin in thefertilisation of a highly specialised germ-cell (contained AVI thintin- ovule) by the contents of a sperm-cell (the pollen-grain).so do we find, among all save the lowest cryptoyains, a provisionfor the union of the contents of two highly specialised germ-cells being fertilised by the access of motile protoIlasmie 1 todies (anthero/.oids), set free from the cavities of the-pii-m-cells within which they were developed. Hut althoughthe sexual process can lie traced downwards under this form into PROTOPLASM OF THE LIVING CELL 537.

Onboth these subjects itis impossible here togive more than thebarest outlines. Stras-burger distinguishesbetween the followingdifferen
