Other points also emerge from Table 135. Sznerovna's figures illustrate the transfer of nitrogen from yolk and white to embryo, the embryo having at the end about as much nitrogen as the yolk had at the beginning. Iljin's figures illustrate the large increase (perhaps due to ovomucoid) in the unpre- cipitable nitrogen of the yolk towards the end of development. But more illuminating are the figures of Riddle represented graphically in Fig. 308, for they show that, in per cent, of the dry solids in the yolk, the yolk- proteins rise during the last 5 or 6 days of incubation. This is due to a preference on the part of the embryo for lipoids and fats, ^'^' 3°9' the concentration of which correspondingly rapidly decreases, and the graph has only to be compared with that in Fig. 252, where the absorption intensity of the embryo at different times is given, to show how good the correlation is.
