Abstract
Variability of the first cleavage furrow is examined in intact and deformed embryos in deformed ova of green toad obtained by an original method: a short-term arrest of spawning. A relationship is revealed between the incidence of violations of the second law of Hertwig and the degree of deformation of the embryo. The orientation of the first cleavage furrow is evidently determined in oogenesis.
