A change in the amount of yolk and its distribution in the egg will affect:

  1. Fertilisation
  2. Pattern of cleavage
  3. Formation of zygote
  4. Number of blastomeres produced

Answer

(2) Pattern of cleavage

Solution

Yolk is inert and resists division of the cytoplasm during cleavage.

⇒ The amount and distribution of yolk decide whether cleavage is holoblastic (complete) or meroblastic (partial), equal or unequal.

∴ A change in yolk amount and distribution changes the pattern of cleavage, while fertilisation and zygote formation are not affected.

Answer: (2)
