There remains then an open portion of the alimentary tract, where its walls are continuous with the extra- embryonic splanchnopleure or yolk-sac. This is known as the yolk-stalk. The entrance from the yolk-sac into the fore-gut is known as the anterior intestinal portal, and that from the yolk-sac into the hind-gut as the posterior intestinal portal (Fig. 70). At the 27 s stage the yolk-stalk is long and narrow (Fig. 106); the stems of the splanchnic (omphalo-mesenteric) veins run to the heart in its anterior portion, and the omphalo-mesenteric arteries pass out about its center. As it gradually closes, the stems of the omphalo-mesenteric arteries and veins are brought closer together. At about five days it becomes a tubular, thick- walled stalk, connecting intestine and yolk-sac, and so remains throughout embryonic life. The limiting sulci in the somatopleure lead to the formation of the body-wall. In the trunk the somatopleure is separated from the splanchnopleure by the coelome (Fig. 69), and the folds in the somatopleure take the same general direction as those in the splanchnopleure; they thus lead to the format
