In one kind the cytoplasm contains several nuclei, wherce they have been termed polycaryocytes, and they seem to be the cells which have already been mentioned as osteoclasts (p. 158). In the other kind (Fig- I35) tne nucleus is single, but it is large and irregular in shape, frequently appearing as if it were producing buds. These mega- caryocytes appear to be phagocytic cells, having as their function the destruction of degenerated corpuscles and of the nuclei of the Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original McMurrich, J.
