Once an egg is fertilized, it rapidly divides into many smaller cells. This is called cleavage. But just as there are many different animals in the world, there are also many cleavage patterns. Here you'll learn about the patterns specific to holoblastic, or complete cleavage.

It is characterized by complete cleavage that divides the whole egg into distinct and separate blastomeres — compare meroblastic :)
