The subsequent various unevenness of height and position of epidermaU and subsidiary-cells and ot stomata arises through the growth of the cells subsequently to their division. During growth all cells without exception increase in volume. But the passive tension by the internal tissue, which the epidermis of growing, as also of adult parts undergoes, finally brings about, as Pfitzer has shown in the stomata of the Grasses', a considerable.
