DEVELOPMENT OF THE SENSB-ORGANa 



Qrijfin of the most highly Purposive Sense-organs by no Preconceived 

 Purpose, but simply by Natural Selection. — The Six Sense-organs 

 and the Seven Sense-functions. — All the Sense-organs originally 

 Developed from the Outer Skin-covering (from the Skin-sensory 

 Layer). — Organs of the Pressure Sense, the Heat Sense, the 

 Sexual Sense, and the Taste Sense. — Structure of the Organ of 

 Scent. — The Blind Nose-pits of Fishes. — The Nasal Furrows change 

 into Nasal Canals. — Separation of the Cavities of the Nose and 

 Mouth by the Palate B«of. — Structure of the Eye. — The Primary 

 Eye Vesicles (Stalked Protuberances from the Twixt-brain). — 

 Inversion of this Eye Vesicle by the Crystalline Lens, separated 

 from the Horn-plate. — Inversion of the Vitreous Body. — The Vaa- 

 oular Capsule and the Fibrous Capsule of the Eyeball. — Eyelids. 

 — Structure of the Ear. — The Apparatus for Perception of Sound : 

 Labyrinth and Auditory Nerve. — Origin of the Labyrinth from 

 the Primitive Ear Vesicles (by Separation from the Horn-plate). — 

 Conducting Apparatus of Sound : Drum Cavity, Ear Bonelets, and 

 Drum Membrane. — Origin of these from the First Gill-opening 

 and the Parts immediately round it (the First and Second Gill- 

 arch). — Eudimentary Outer Ear, — Eudimentary Muscles of the 

 Ear.shell ... ... ... ... ... ... SM
