Moreover, in the chick (Fig. 40) both layer- of the amniotic foldscontain mesoblast and epiblast ; in the mammal only the inner layer,which is to form the true amnion, possesses any me-oltla-t. At a somewhat later stage (Fig. 55) the true amnion is completed 1 Arch. (/< Biologic, t. v. p. Anaiomu M Embryonal,.

The false amnion is also seen to have sep-arated to a considerable extent from the blastodermic vesicle, whichhas become reduced in size and covered more than halfway round bymesoblast. Still later (Fig. 56), the false amnion (fa) is seen to have Fig. 54. Fig. 55.
