Under the head of vegetable physiology the Student will not be expected to deal with special questions relating to the more highly differentiated flowering plants. He will be expected to shew a practical knowledge of the general structure of each of the animal types above specified, and an elementary knowledge of the chief biological laws which the structural phenomena illustrate. He will also be expected to shew an elementary knowledge of the general develop. mental history of Amphioxus and of Rana. He will not be expected to deal with purely physiological details.
