It was taken from the uterus of a am crn-.

The entire inner surface of the trophoblast(Fig. 35, ce) was lined by a layer of mesoderm (cm), which, 82 THE EXTERNAL FORM OF THE BODY. 83 on the surface furthest away from the uterine cavity, wasconsiderably thicker than elsewhere, forming an area ofattachment of the embryo to the wall of the ovum. Inthe substance of this thickening was the amniotic cavity(aw), whose roof was formed by flattened cells, which, atthe sides, became continuous with a layer of columnar cellsforming the floor of the cavity and constituting the em-bryonic ectoderm (ec).
