In the study of life the functional unities are the important differentiating elements, PHYSIOLOGY AND PHILOSOPHY. 215 and it may be said that the individuality of an apparatus depends upon the function of that apparatus regardless of the geography or the topo- graphical distribution of the apparatus or organ. "The history of the taste nerve is the best proof of the independence of the true phys- iological unities and of the false anatomical unities" (p. 336). It is the province of the physiolo...gist, therefore, to determine the real unity of any organ or group of organs. In the nervous system it cannot be doubted that the anatomical unity is an artiticial construction, for no one can say where the spinal cord begins and the medulla stops, nor where the cerebrum begins and the mid-brain ends, and we are com- pelled to concede the preponderating importance to the physiological or the functional view. In this sense we may take the remark of Lamarck: " The function creates the organ. " The word organ has a definite meaning only from the physiological point of view, it is a something that does some definite thing.
