The pronephros or "head kidney" is the anterior-most of the three, and in the human embryo develops from the nephrotomes of segments seven to fourteen. The first of the pronephric tubules makes its appearance in a mm. embryo, and all eight tubules are formed by the time the embryo has reached a length of mm. Degeneration begins soon and the anterior tubules disappear before the posterior ones are differentiated. The development of pronephric tubules is initiated by the parietal layer of the nephrotome or intermediate cell mass from which cells are.
