Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Telolecithal eggs have abundant yolk that is concentrated at one pole, usually the vegetal pole. A isolecithal egg has an even distribution of yolk, a mesolecithal egg has some yolk concentration but not as much as a telolecithal egg, and holoblastic refers to the type of cleavage that occurs in eggs, not the yolk distribution.
