Certain of the ribs may reach the mid-ventral line and come into connec- tion with a breast-bone or sternum, and thus form complete rings •or hoops around the visceral tube. The anterior ends of the central nervous system (brain) and ali- mentary tract enter into close relations with the outer world, the.
