A microscopicexamination of a sectionthrough this region nowshows the development ofa median layer of cells (themesoderm), made up ofcells derived in part from alayer furnished by the ecto-derm and by another fur- Head- Fig. 63. — Fmbryonic area of rabbit em-bryo : Primitive streak beginning in cell-proliferation, known as the node of Hensen (E. v.

In the course of its development themesoderm develops lateral reduplications and parts into two layers(the parietal and visceral layers) inclosing spaces,—the body-cavity, or celom (Fig. 64). The parietal or somatic layer uniteswith the ectoderm to form the somatopleure. The visceral orsplanchnic layer joins the entoderm to form the splanch- rrimitive groove. Beginningamnion fold.
