In many animals the germ-track is marked out from the undivided egg onwards by characteristics of the cytoplasm instead of the nucleus. The fresh-water crustacean Cyclops furnishes an example. The germ- track in this animal was first worked out by Hacker in C. viridis (1897 a), his results being confirmed in all essentials by Amma in 1911, who also Germ Cells Fig. 38.

The account given by the latter author for Cyclops fuscus will serve for an example (Fig. 39). In the prophase of the first cleavage division one attraction sphere is distinguished from the other by a group of granules which surrounds it, these being completely absent from the other sphere. Consequently, at ceU division all the granules pass into one of the first two cells or blastomeres and none into the other ; nor do they ever appear in the descendants of the latter ceU. In the case of the blastomere containing the granules the process is repeated in the following mitosis. After the first cell division is completed the granules become clumped together
