A large amount of yolk in the egg can inhibit movement and interfere with the process of cleavage. The distribution of the yolk can also determine the type of cleavage that happens in the egg.

What is the name of the two poles created as a result of holoblastic cleavage?

Hand Pole and Mouth PoleIn embryology, cleavage is the division of cells in the early embryo. The zygotes of many species undergo rapid cell cycles with no significant growth, producing a cluster of cells the same size as the original zygote. The different cells derived from cleavage are called blastomeres and form a compact mass called the morula. Cleavage ends with the formation of the blastula.Depending mostly on the amount of yolk in the egg, the cleavage can be holoblastic (total or entire cleavage) or meroblastic (partial cleavage). The pole of the egg with the highest concentration of yolk is referred to as the vegetal pole while the opposite is referred to as the animal pole.
