D. Resulting larva, with two rows of plates and two gastric pouches. E. Defective larva, with six rows of plates and three gastric pouches, from a nucleated fragment of an unseg- mented egg. F. Similar larva with five rows of plates, from above. Driesch, and Morgan ('95), and Fischel ('98). These observers have demonstrated that isolated blastomeres of the two-, four-, or eight-cell stage undergo a cleavage which, through the earliest stages, is exactly like that which it would have undergone if forming part of a com-.
