In most of the animal tissues the multiplication of cells by division takes place during the embryonic state of development, but in some cartilages it appears to take place throughout the whole period of their life. Most of the articular cartilages which cover the ends of the bones retain their primitive cellular organization, which may be seen at any time. Fig. 15 shows the successive steps in the mul- tiplication of cartilage cells. In this process, as in all the other acts of cell-life in animals, the nucleus, seems gene- rally to take a more conspicuous part than it does in 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 Coultas, Harland, d. 1877.
