Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The germinal vesicle is the nucleus of the immature egg cell, which increases its RNA content as it matures. This is a necessary process for successful fertilization and embryo development. A pronucleus is formed after fertilization when the male and female pronuclei fuse together. A cleavage furrow is a physical indentation that forms during cell division to separate the two daughter cells. A blastomere is a single cell that results from the first few mitotic divisions of the zygote.
