APICAL AND INTERCALARY GROWTH 307 disappears early, but the cell itself retains its form for some time. We see inFig. 26 of Part I, on the right, that already the apical cell of the leaf-primor-dium, which consists of thirteen cells, has grown out to some extent—anindication that it has expended its capacity for division, and that its phaseof elongation has now set in ;but in the basal portion of theprimordium, which is stillsmall, as we may see by a com-parison with the figure stand-ing on the left, the cell-division.
