During the first half of the second day the heart (Ht) appears in the head-fold, its origin being connected with that cleavage of the mesoblast already referred to. It is formed in the pleuro-peritoneal space shown in fig. 200, and situated just beneath the developing fore-gut {al). At first the heart is flask-shaped,. -Twes.

Ihj, epiblast; not, notochord; tries, mesoblast; (After Foster and Balfour.) with a swelling at its anterior end and another behind, the future auricles. The heart is formed entirely from mesoblast, on the ventral side of the throat, by a curious process of hollowing out of the splanchnic mesoblast: some of the original central cells become blood - corpuscles. Concomitant with the appearance of the heart is the vascular system, which consists of a number of tubes hollowed out in the mesoblast. Blood-corpuscles are rapidly formed in masses in the vascular area, called blood-islands. By degrees the heart becomes S-shaped, the right-hand curve of.
