Study Notes

Spiral and Determinate Cleavage

  • Spiral 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.
  • Spiral and determinate cleavage leads to the formation of specific tissues and structures during embryonic development.
  • This type of cleavage is essential for the differentiation and specialization of cells.
  • The unequal distribution of cytoplasm within blastomeres plays a crucial role in determining cell fate.
  • The diagonal cleavage pattern ensures the development of distinct cell lineages.
  • Spiral and determinate cleavage plays a fundamental role in the early stages of embryogenesis.
  • Understanding this type of cleavage is important for studying the developmental biology of various organisms.
