Spatula-type sperm of various mammals. (Compiled from Bowen; Gatenby and Beams; Gatenby and Woodger; see references in bibliography.) Observe the vacuole inside the head of the sperm. Gatenby and Beams found that this vacuole, in some instances, stains similar to a nucleolus, but suggest it may be a hydrostatic organ, or respiratory structure. (P. 20, Quart. J. Micr. Sc, 78.) suggest their description as "lamp-brush" chromosomes. Another difference of chromatic behavior is manifested by the fact that the chromosomes in the developing female gamete during the diplotene stage are not easily stained by the ordinary nuclear stains, whereas the chromosomes in the spermatocyte stain readily. Aside from the differences in chromosomal behavior, great discrepancies in the amount of growth of the nucleus occur in the two gametes during meiosis. The nucleus of the oocyte greatly increases in size and a large quantity of nuclear fluid or sap comes to surround the chromosomes (figs. 7IF, G; 72C, F, E). Correlated with this increase in nuclear size, the egg grows rapidly,.
