and from twelve to twenty days more slowly. After twenty 

 days it decreases a little. The ratios at the bottom of the last 

 column show these relations. The familiar fact, that the length 

 increases from the base to the apex is clearly shown in chart 28. 



TABLE 61 



Lengths of the inner and outer pillar cells (without head) measured from the footplate 

 on the membrana basilaris to the point directly below the junction 

 (charts 27 to 32) 



When we calculate the average values of the inner and outer 

 pillar cells from Retzius table ('84), we get the following (table 

 62). . 



TABLE 62 



Combined lengths of the inner and outer pillars from the foot plate to a point 

 directly below the junction in n (Retzius)
