Ribosome microcrystals have been obtained for the first time in homogenates and extracts of chick embryos mainly in the form of P422 stacks that have average linear dimensions some 40% greater than those obtained in vivo. Key words: ribosomes,

β¦ Synopsis
The relationship between ribosome crystallization and cell degeneration has been studied in chick embryos at various temperatures, and new methods of inducing ribosome microcrystals are described. A model is discussed that reinterprets the role of low temperatures in these phenomena and provides a unitary explanation of the various cases in which the occurrence of ribosome crystallization in chick embryos has been reported.

Electromyograms (EMG's ) of developing chick embryos were recorded with an electrolytically sharpened tungsten electrode and with a concentric unipolar electrode. Earlier observations of the occurrence of movements on the sixth day were confirmed. Before the twelfth day, only small irregular potent
A study has been made of the effect of acetylcholine upon the heart rate of the early chick embryo, and it has been noted that under certain experimental conditions acetylcholine stimulates the heart rate during the period of vagal innervation, while depressing the heart rate after the nerve supply
## EIGHT FIGURES Recent knowledge of the factors involved in development has come, for the most part, from two major sources: experimental investigations and studies of genetically controlled variants. The latter type of investigation has frequently corroborated principles first observed under exp
