Thus, in the formation of epidermal cells the nucleus lies at first near the centre, but as the outer wall thickens, the nucleus moves towards it, and remains closely applied to it throughout its growth, after which the nucleus often moves into another part of the cell (Fig. 114, A, B).

The same position of the nucleus is shown in the thickening of the walls of the guard-cells of stomata, in the formation of the peristome of mosses, and in many other cases. In the formation of root-hairs in the pea, the primary outgrowth alwavs takes place from the immediate neighbour- hood of the nucleus, which is carried outward and remains near the tip of the growing hair (Fig. 114, D, E). The same is true of the.
