Fig. 481. Dorsal view of embryo of albatross, showing amnion covering greater part of embryo
Schauinsland.
The amniotic cavity is filled with fluid, the liquor amnii, the origin of which is uncertain. In it the embryo floats freely, attached only by its ventral connection with the yolk. At about the fifth day of incubation rhythmical contractions of the amnion begin. These are apparently due to the development of contractile fibers in its mesodermic tissue and give to the embryo a regular oscillating motion.

Pages where the terms "Historic" (textbooks, papers, people, recommendations) appear on this site, and sections within pages where this disclaimer appears, indicate that the content and scientific understanding are specific to the time of publication. This means that while some scientific descriptions are still accurate, the terminology and interpretation of the developmental mechanisms reflect the understanding at the time of original publication and those of the preceding periods, these terms, interpretations and recommendations may not reflect our current scientific understanding.
