  • Study Notes

    Cleavage

    • Cells produced during cleavage are called blastomeres.
    • Successive cleavages result in an increase in the number of cells, but not in the overall size of the embryo, as the cytoplasm is divided equally among the cells.
    • Cleavage is the series of rapid cell divisions that occur after fertilization, without significant growth, resulting in an increased number of cells, but not an increase in size.
