When does Holoblastic cleavage take place?

Holoblastic cleavage takes place during early embryonic development in animals, typically during the first few cleavage divisions after fertilization. It involves complete division of the egg into individual blastomeres as opposed to partial or incomplete cleavage seen in other types of cleavage.

What are the Physiological differences of cleavage between mammals and birds?

What kind of cleavage are you referring to? Cleavage could refer to a cleavage furrow during cytokinesis or to the splitting of cells in an embryo or to any other sort of separation. Please specify.


Is the sea star embryo growing during cleavage?

no.


In what phase does the cleavage furrow appear?

A cleavage furrow forms during the Telophase phase. During the Metaphase phase chromosomes line up in the center of cell at the metal plate.


What stage does the cleavage appear in mitosis?

There are five stages of mitosis starting with prophase and ending with telophase. The cleavage furrow develops during cytokinesis which is after the telophase, so the cleavage furrow does not develop in mitosis at all.


The series of cellular divisions by which the zygote becomes a multicellular embryo is known as?

The series of cellular divisions by which the zygote becomes a multicellular embryo is known as cleavage. During cleavage, the zygote undergoes multiple rapid divisions without growth in between, leading to the formation of a blastula or blastocyst.


What phase does cleavage furrow forms?

Telophase More specifically during cytokinesis


Experiments with cohesion have found that?

cohesions are protected from cleavage at the centromere during meiosis I.


What causes the furrow during cleavage?

The furrow during cleavage is caused by the contraction of a ring of actin and myosin filaments, which are part of the cytoskeleton in the cell. This contraction creates a cleavage furrow that pinches the cell membrane inward, ultimately leading to the division of the cell into two daughter cells. The process is regulated by cellular signaling pathways and is crucial for proper cell division during embryonic development.
