Usually, the cleavage pattern of the lower hemisphere retainsenough of its earlier bilateral symmetry to enable one to distin-guish first and second cleavage furrows. The vegetal pole, sinceit occurs at the intersection of the first two cleavage furrows,may in most cases still be determined quite accurately and con-veniently by means of the cleavage pattern. As shown in figures111 and 112, the vegetal pole is excentrically located in the areaoccupied by the macrome
