Figure 39 is a mia'oscopic view of a vertical section of a hydra to show the structure of the body wall. There is an outer layer called the ectoderm, and an inner layer called the endoderm. There is also a thin supporting layer (black in the figure) called the viesoglea. The mesoglea is tlie thinnest layer. Are the cells larger in the endoderm or the ectoderm ? Do both layers of cells assist in forming the reproductive bud ? The ecto- derm cells end on the inside in contractile tails which form a thin line and have the effect of muscle fibres. They serve the hydra for its remarkable changes of shape. When the hydra is cut in pieces, each piece makes a complete hydra, provided it contains both endoderm and Fig. 39. — Longitudinal section of hydra (microscopic and diagrammatic)..
