A number of segmented ova in presumably the 6- and 8-cell stages were removed from oviducts by injection and studied in warm normal salt solution, in a liv- ing state. In the warm normal salt solution the morula masses. Fig. 13 JNIodel of right oviduct of rat No. oO, 3 days, 1 hour.

In none of the sections of fixed material of my series was this the case. The form of the cell mass, assumed b}^ the segmenting mammalian ovum in early stages of segmenta- tion, therefore, seems to me a question more for academic dis- cussion than one of fundamental importance. The right ovi- duct of rat No. 50 (3 days, 1 hour) was reconstructed after the Born method. This model is reproduced in figure 13, and includes the uppermost end of the uterine horn. The oviduct.
