Fig The axis-cylinder processes usually are directed towards thenearest mass of white matter, since the axis-cylinder of the nerve-fibre becomes continuous with that of the cell. Exceptionalarrangements are sometimes encountered, as where one process of a bipolar cell becomes wound aboutthe remaining straighter fibre, con-stituting a spiral process ; such cellsare comparatively frequent in the sym-pathetic ganglia of the frog. Ganglion-cells lie within peri-cellu-lar lymph-spaces, which appear withgreater or lessFig. 85. distinctness ac- ){$f/1 cording to thecondition of the Fig.
