As development proceeds the medullary folds increase in height and at the same time incline toward one another (Fig. 44), so that their edges finally come into contact and later fuse, the two ecto- dermal layers forming the one uniting with the corresponding layers of the other (Fig. 46). By this process the medullary groove be- comes converted into a medullary canal which later becomes the.
