The lumen or cavity of the tube persists as the central canal of the spinal cord and the ventricles of the brain. The Brain. At the time of its first appearance the brain is bent at right angles about the middle of its length ; the axis of THE BKAiN 119 the anterior portion being vei-tical, and that of the posteriorportion horizontal. (Fig. 27.) The posterior portion, or hind-brain, BH, is wide from side to side, and has moderately thicksides and flooi, but a thin roof; it is continuous behind withthe spinal cord. The anterior or vertical portion has walls of nearly uniformthickness in all parts. It is divided by a slight Fig. 29.—Longitudinal vertical section through the head andanterior part of the body of a tadpole about the time of appearance ofthe hind legs. Length of tadpole, 12 mm.
