blastulas in a sentence
Examples
- Fish embryos go through a process called mid-blastula transition which is observed around the tenth cell division in some fish species.
- Combining the expression of transcription factors and locational positioning of the blastula cells can lead to the development of induced functional organs and tissues.
- A ball of cells characteristic of animals, the blastula, is ultimately produced in this manner, with a maximum of 256 cells.
- Mammals at this stage form a structure called the blastocyst, characterized by an inner cell mass that is distinct from the surrounding blastula.
- Dissection of " Tarebia granifera " showed blastula stage embryos in the brood pouches of snails as small as 8 mm shell height.
- The parts that are autotomised or the buds may develop directly into fully formed larvae or may develop through a gastrula or even a blastula stage.
- A common feature of a vertebrate blastula is that it consists of a layer of blastomeres, known as the blastoderm, which surrounds the blastocoele.
- The first multicellular hollow ball of stem cells, the blastula, separates into distinct germ layers during gastrulation-the ectoderm, mesoderm, endoderm.
- During gastrulation the cells of the blastula undergo coordinated processes of cell division, invasion, and / or migration to form two ( triploblastic ) tissue layers.
- Since the embryonic development of the blastula within egg is also very similar to that of echinoderms, this suggests a close phylogenetic link between the two groups.
