Text Appearing Before Image:
mbsthat the organism chiefly reacts on the environment, andis modified by it. Fore-limbs.—In the accompanying figures (Figs. 5-18) we have represented, side by side, the fore-limbs ofmany vertebrates, taken from all the classes—mammals,birds, reptiles, and fishes. For convenience of compari-son, the corresponding parts are similarly lettered in all.Also, in order to identify easily certain important corre-sponding segments, we have drawn through them a con-tinuous dotted line. In man, nearly all the parts arepresent, and his limbs, therefore, may be taken as a termof comparison; for mans structure, except his brain, isfar less modified than that of many animals. Note, then, the following points : 1. The collar-bone(clavicle) is associated with wide separation of the shoul-ders, and the free use of the fore-limb for prehension or 90 EVIDENCES OF THE TFwUTH OF EYOLUTIOK for flight, but is gradually lost in proportion as the fore-limb is brought nearer together and used for suj^port.
Text Appearing After Image:

The coracoid (c), it is seen, is a small, beak-likeprocess of the blade-bone (scapula) in man and mam-mals ; but in birds (Fig. 11) and reptiles (Figs. 14, 18)
