Also, the notochord rounds up into a normally shaped notochord but is only half the normal size. Essentially, however, these separated blastomeres develop into "half embryos in which some cells have grown over from the uninjured to the injured side, but in which absolutely no change has taken place in the potency of the individual cells or of the different ooplasmic substances" (Conklin, '06). Similarly, at the four-cell stage isolation of anterior and poste- rior blastomeres gives origin to anterior and posterior half embryos respectively. The developing sea-urchin egg has been used extensively for experimental work in the study of isolated blastomeres. In figures 163 and 166A-D are shown the different developmental possibilities which ari
