Already at my arrival in New

New Embryonic Life
| Findings Described
By Dr.. Sireeter
Process Of Egg Growth
In Monkeys Found to
PuruIIeI Humon's

New findings on the earliest days
of embryonic life, which are at
variance with theories held for q
century, were described before the
Carnegie Institution of Washington
last night by DR.. George L. Streeter,
head of the institutions Division of
Animal Biology.
DR.. Streeter told of q long series
of observations with macaque mon
keys where the process of egg de-
velopment is believed to be essential
ly parallel to that in man. When
the expansion Of the extremely
minute mammal egg gets under way,
DR.. Streeter said, the new cells
which split OF from the original
single cell appear to divide into two
main groups-the active and the
lazy.
First Continue to Expand.
They first continue to expand and
divide very rapidly while the latter
remain punched together and sell
dom split, until the active cells have
formed an embryonic organ known
as the "yolk sac" Then the other
cells start their development process,
which continues until the complete
individual, monkey or man, is
formed. Thus this individual de-
velops out Of a very small part ,of
the original egg, itself microscopic
in size.
The originally active cells never
enter into the makeup of the
actual embryo but seem to serve the
function of nurse cells, forming
structures which perform all sorts
OF services for the tiny organism
until it Is able to shift for itself.
The yolk sac, DR.. Streeter said, at
ta1ns the status of a distinct en-
bryonic organ. probably essential
for the respiration of the develop
ing individual during the early
days of embryonic life. 1t is dis
carded, together with all the other
structures formed by the originally
active cells, At the time of birth.
Process more Complex.
For the past century. DR.. Streeter
said. there has been q classic theory
in embryology that the embryo
develops out of the twistings and
foldings of three original germ cell
layers. These are the ectoderm, from
which comes the skin and nervous
system: the endoderm, from which
comes the digestive system, and the
mesoderm, from which comes the
bones, blood, etc. The new findings,
based on actual observations, DR..
Streeter said, do not actually dis
pute this theory in its main essen
tials but show the process to be
much more complex.
