____ and determinate cleavage is characterized by asymmetrical lines or planes of cleavage. Cleavage lines are diagonal to the polar axis, resulting in unequal cells around the axis of polarity. All blastomeres in spiral and determinate cleavage have predetermined roles in embryo formation. The fate of each blastomere is predetermined in this type of cleavage. This type of cleavage contrasts with radial and indeterminate cleavage. It is a characteristic feature of certain groups of organisms, such as mollusks and annelids.
