MOBPHOLOGY OF THE CELL. 



The latter 



pass over into the variety shown in Fig. 59, No. 18. 

 are known as " conjugate cells." 



PROSENCHYMA PROPER. 



256. Typical wood-cells. These are best illustrated by elon- 

 aated, often pointed cells, of which good examples are found in 

 the cambium layer (that is, the layer of merismatic or formative
