this development proceeds, we see the medulla oblongata, 

 the cerebellum and cerebrum, coming into view, whilst 

 the motor parts withdraw more and more into the back- 

 ground and ultimately almost entirely disappear. All 

 nervous centres, the lowest as well as the most highly 

 developed, are disposed upon an analogous plan ; the 

 only thing which, at least as yet, can be regarded as an

 lum processes from ganglion-cells are connected with par- 

 ticularly complicated apparatuses, which most resemble
