In the Eutheria, the ordinary mammals with whichwe are familiar, including man, the ova are verjsmall ( to niillimcter diameter), are very noorin yolk, and are never covered by any shell or sheU-meinbrane. Rarely, as in tlie rabbit, the egg receivesa coating of albumen during its passage throughthe Fallopian tube. The cleavage is holoblastic, butthe result is very unlike the blastula of the J;y Lttl Fig. 663.— Through Three Stages of theBlastocyst of the Mole, x and z, Zona pellueida; Ec, trophoblast;hy, endoderm; , inner cell mass. (After Heape.) In the marsupials, as stated above, the cleavage isradial and produces an open ring of blastomeres thatgive rise directly to a single layered blastocyst. Inthe Eutheria, on the other hand, the origin of theblastocj-st is indirect. The first two cleavages pro-duce a characteristic four-cell stage in which the blasto-meres have a peculiar cross-sliaped the close of tlie cleavage, the minute embrjo is asolid mass of cells, or morula. In some cases theinner cells of the morula are found to stain differentlyfrom the outer ones, indicating a difference in con-stitution, and it has been suggested that the latterhave grown around the former by a process of over-grow
