These flexures are characteristic of amniote FROM TWELVE TO THIRTY-SIX SOMITES 135 vertebrate embryos; the cause appears to lie in the precociousdevelopment of the central nervous system, of which more here-after. Only the cranial flexure remains as a permanent con-dition. II. Origin of the Embryonic Membranes The period from about 12 to 36 somites also includes the earlyhistory of the embryonic membranes, amnion, chorion, yolk-sacand allantois. The first three arise from the extra-embryonicblastoderm, and the allantois arises as an outgrowth of the ven-tral wall of the \ Fig. 72. — The head of the same embryo frombelow,a. i. p., Anterior intestinal portal.

The amnion is a thinmembranous sac, forming a complete investment for the embryoand continuous with the body-wall at the umbilicus; it lies beneaththe chorion to which it remains attached throughout incubationby a plate of tissue (sero-amniotic connection), and it arises incommon with the chorion from the extra-embryonic entire somatopleure external to the embryo is used up inthe formation of these two membranes. The amnion arises froma portion immediately adjoining the embryo itself; the remainderof the somatopleure peripheral to the amniogenous part formsthe chorion. Thus the extra-embryonic somatopleure may bedivided into two zones; an amniogenous zo
