In the ovum of a turtle or a bird the first plane of seg-mentation crosses the protoplasmic disk, dividing it intotwo practically equal halves, and the second plane formsat approximately right angles to the first one, dividingthe disk into four quadrants (Fig. 18, A). The thirddivision, like the two which precede it, is radial in position,while the fourth is circular and cuts off the inner ends ofthe six cells previously formed (Fig. 18, D). The disknow consists of six central smaller cells surrounded by six
