The blastoderm early becomes divided in two layers as far as the margin of the vascular area. The outer layer, known ' as the somatopleure, is continuous with the body-wall, which is C open ventrally in the young embryo. The inner one, known as [^ the splanchnopleure, is continuous with the wall of the intestine which is likewise open ventralh^ The space between these two membranes, the extra-embryonic body-cavity, is continuous with the body-cavity of the embryo. Ultimately, the splitting ^f the blastoderm is carried around the entire yolk, so that the latter is enclosed in a separate sac of the splanchnopleure, the yolk-sac, which is connected by a stalk, the yolk-stalk, to the intestine of the embryo. This stalk runs through an opening in the ventral body-w^all, the umbilicus, where the amnion, which has developed from the extra-embryonic somatopleure, joins the body-wall (Fig. 33 B). About the nineteenth day of incubation the yolk-sac is drawn.
