The American Journal Of Anatomy Vol 15

Excerpt from The American Journal of Anatomy, Vol. 15: 1913 1914 The present paper includes statistical data upon certain phases of the growth Of the body as a whole and more especially the relative growth and variability Of the individual organs in the albino rat. A study Of this kind may be Of value in two respects. In the first place, it should give a better insight into the nature Of growth, a fundamental biological phenomenon worthy Of more study for its own sake. In the second place, a more complete knowledge Of the process Of growth, including the limits Of nor mal variation, should be Of value for reference in experimental work Of various kinds, for which the rat is Often used.
