TABLE II. 



Review of the Constituent Parts of the One-celled Germ. organism, before 



and after fertilization. 



Cf. the works of Eduard Strasburger (" Ueber Zellbildung, Zelltheilung 

 und Befruchtung," 2ud Edition ; Jena, 1876) ; of Oscar Hertwig (" Beitrage 

 zur Kentniss der Bildung, Befruchtung, und Theilung des Thierischen Eies;" 

 1875) ; of Leopold Auerbach (" Organologisohe Studien ; " 1874) ; and of Otto 

 Biitschli (" Studien iiber die ersten Entwickelungs-Yorgange der Eizelle," 

 etc.; 1876) .5* 



I. The Fertilizing Male, 

 or Paternal Sexual 

 Cell. 



The Sperm-cell. 

 Spevmule. 

 Syn. Thread - cell. 

 Seed-animalcule. Sper- 

 matozoa. Zoosperm, 

 Fig. 17, p. 173. 



Constituent Parts. 

 I. A. Protoplasm of the 

 Sperm-cell. 



(Spermoplasma.) 

 The central portion 

 and the tail of the seed- 

 thread, together with 

 the outer sheath of the 

 "head." 



I. B. Kernel (nucleus) 

 of the Sperm-cell. 

 (Spermococcus.) 

 Sperm-kernel (Hert- 

 wig). " Head of the 

 sporm-animal" (with 

 the exception of the 

 thin outer sheath). 



II. The Fertilized Female, 

 or Maternal Sexual 

 Cell. 



The Egg-cell. 



Ovule. 

 Syn. The unfertilized 



PfTIT 



Fig. 1, p.l22. 

 Fig. 10, p. 134. 



Constituent Parts. 

 II. A. Protoplasm of the 

 Egg-ceU. 



(Ovoplasma.) 

 Yelk, egg-yelk, Lecy- 

 thus, vitellus. 



II. B. Kernel (nucleus) 

 of the Egg-cell. 



(Ovococcus.) 

 Germ-vesicle, or Pur- 

 kinje's vesicle (Vesicula 

 Germinativa) , contain- 

 ing the germ-spot 

 (Macula Germinativa), 

 or the nucleolus, which, 

 accordiug to Hertwig, 

 becomes the egg-kemel. 



III. The New Cell, the 

 product of the Concre- 

 scence of I. and II. 



egg 



The Parent-cell. 



Cytula. 

 Syn. The fertilized 

 The first cleavage- 

 globule. The oldest 

 cleavage-cell. Segynen- 

 tella pritna. 



Fig. 21, p. 181. 



Constituent Parts. 



III. A. Protoplasm of 

 Parent-cell: Cleavage- 

 yelk. 



(Cytuloplasma.) 

 Protoplasm of the 

 first cleavage - globule 

 (the product of the 

 amalgamation of I. A. 

 and II. A. 



III. B. Kernel (nucleus) 

 of the Parent-cell. 



(Cytulococcvs.) 



Cleavage-kernel (Hert- 

 wig), Germ - kernel 

 (Strasburger). Kernel 

 of the first cleavage- 

 globule (product of the 

 amalgamation of the 

 sperm -kernel and the 

 egg-kernel ?).^*
