Abstract
One hundred forty four ovine embryos and feti were used in an investig ation to determine mathematical models describing the histomorphometri c growth of tissues and compartments of the ruminant stomach. The resu lts indicate that during prenatal life the diameter of the gastric cha mbers increase more slowly than the length. The tissue layers of the g astric walls, particularly the muscular tunic of all compartments demo nstrated a uniform tendency toward more rapid development than the com partment walls proper.
