(After Herbst.) good evidence for preformation, that is, for a predeterminationof the role each part of the egg cell is to play in , Wilson is convinced that an obvious structural differ-entiation (bands, zones, delimited regions) can be seen in theundeveloped eggs of numerous animals, a differentiation corre-sponding to structural di-vergence in development. On the other hand, nu-merous results of experi-ment speak just as loudlyagainst preformation or pre-determination. Such areHerlitzkas half-sized Tritonembryos from the two sepa-rated first cleavage cells, Drieschs two half-sized and four quarter-sized sea-urchin pluteifrom the cells of the first and second cleavages, respectively,his eight and sixteen small gastrula1, and thirty-two tiny blas-tulse from the separate blastomeres of the third, fourth, andfifth cleava
