The development of the human body; a manual of human embryology . s begun to beat before theconnection with the vessels is made, so that when it ismade, the circulation is at once established.

In the human embryothe small size of theyolk-sac permits of theextension of the vascu-lar area over its entiresurface at an early pe-riod, and this conditionhas already been reachedin the earliest stagesknown and consequentlyno sinus terminalis suchas occurs in the rabbit isvisible. Otherwise the conditions are probably similar towhat has been described above, the first circulation de-veloped being associated with the Formation of the Blood.—The erythrocytes, which.

THE BLOOD. 243 are the first blood-eorpuscles, are all nucleated and are fora time the only cells occurring in the blood, though laterother cells, arising in tissues exterior to the blood-vessels,make their way into the vessels, forming leukocytes. Fromtheir very first formation then the red (erythrocytes) andwhite (leukocytes) blood-corpuscles have a different ori-gin, and they remain distinct throughout life, one formnever becoming converted into the other. *<v75
