  2. Fish development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fish_development

    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 ...

  3. Blastulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blastulation

    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.

  4. Coregonus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coregonus

    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.

  5. Animal embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Animal_embryonic_development

    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.

  6. Midblastula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midblastula

    This is an embryo 4 hours after fertilization before it has undergone MBT. 3 layers are present: yolk syncytial layer (YSL), enveloping layer (EVL), and deep cells (DEL). Before the embryo undergoes the midblastula transition it is in a state of fast and constant replication of cells. [1] The cell cycle is very short. The cells in the zygote ...

  7. Leptotene stage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leptotene_stage

    The leptotene stage, also known as leptonema, is the first of five substages of prophase I during meiosis, the specialized cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half to produce haploid gametes in sexually reproducing organisms.

  8. Lake whitefish - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lake_whitefish

    Lake whitefish are found throughout much of Canada and parts of the northern United States, including all of the Great Lakes. The lake whitefish is sometimes referred to as a "humpback" fish due to the small size of the head in relation to the length of the body. [3] [a] It is a valuable commercial fish, and also occasionally taken by sport ...

  9. Coregonus lavaretus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coregonus_lavaretus

    There is much variation among the European whitefish forms, but in general they have a tapered body, a slightly protruding upper jaw and a fleshy dorsal fin that is typical of the salmon family. The snout is short and tapered, a fact that distinguishes this species from the two other North European Coregonus species, vendace ( Coregonus albula ...
