The differences are due to injury to the leader or dominant growing point. (After Wood-Jones, 1910.) amorphous lumps in rough water (Figs. 9-11). These are somewhat parallel to the forms of certain conifers in still valleys, windy moun- tainsides, and timber line (Schroter, 1908). The former is a response to waves and currents, the latter to wind and snow, but both are the result of the injury to a single dominant bud or zooid. The rather striking parallel is shown in Figs. 6-11. The commercial bath sponge shows several forms: a sphere when suspended on a wire, a spheroid when growing on an elevation above the bottom, and a palmate irregular form when surrounded by plants.
