A. Morula and B. cross section of a blastula displaying the blastocoel and blastoderm of early animal embryonic development. Blastulation is the stage in early animal embryonic development that produces the blastula. In mammalian development, the blastula develops into the blastocyst with a differentiated inner cell mass and an outer trophectoderm.
Fish embryos go through a process called mid-blastula transition which is observed around the tenth cell division in some fish species. Once zygotic gene transcription starts, slow cell division begins and cell movements are observable. [4] During this time three cell populations become distinguished. The first population is the yolk syncytial ...
Coregonus is a diverse genus of fish in the salmon family ().The Coregonus species are known as whitefishes.The genus contains at least 68 described extant taxa, but the true number of species is a matter of debate.
At least four initial cell divisions occur, resulting in a dense ball of at least sixteen cells called the morula. In the early mouse embryo, the sister cells of each division remain connected during interphase by microtubule bridges. [7] The different cells derived from cleavage, up to the blastula stage, are called blastomeres.
Cavitation is the formation of the blastocoel, a fluid-filled cavity that defines the blastula, or in mammals the blastocyst. [1] After fertilization, cell division of the zygote occurs which results in the formation of a solid ball of cells (blastomeres) called the morula.
Prophase is the first step of cell division in mitosis. As it occurs after G2 of interphase, DNA has been already replicated when prophase begins. [1] Fluorescence microscope image of two mouse cell nuclei in prophase (scale bar is 5 μm).
During this stage, the embryo is referred to as a blastula. The series of changes to the blastula that characterize the midblastula transition include activation of zygotic gene transcription, slowing of the cell cycle, increased asynchrony in cell division, and an increase in cell motility.
An oocyte with poles depicted. In developmental biology, an embryo is divided into two hemispheres: the animal pole and the vegetal pole within a blastula.The animal pole consists of small cells that divide rapidly, in contrast with the vegetal pole below it.
