A.M. is the amnion surrounding the embryo. Note particularly how the
allantois (al.) has spread over surface of shell and how the yolk sac is
shrivelled.
Figure 6. Figures to illustrate the relative function and importance of
allantois and yolk sac in bird and mammal. In the fowl, however, the
blood-vessels of the allantois also probably absorb the albumen of the
egg, and may excrete urea into the egg-space.
Figure 7. Simplified figure of the embryonic circulation, for comparison
with the similar figures annexed to Dog-Fish and Rabbit.
