Small chromosomes and accessory designated as in Fig. I. in each of which appears six small chromosomes and seventeen larger ones. In each of these also — especially in the case of the smaller group, the members of which, on account of their nearly spherical form, do not suffer the same degree of fore- shortening in the drawing as do many of their longer comrades — the paired relation may again be made out. Moreover, in the smaller group with its fewer members and greater size-differences, it is possible to see that the volume of the smallest pair (kK), for instance, in one cell bears approximately the same ratio to the homologous pair in another cell as does that of the largest (^/) of the 1 Based on estimates of the number of cells in a spermatocyst at the time of trans- formation to 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 Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
