Abstract
THE mechanism by which cells are redistributed through the series of movements known as gastrulation is an intriguing problem of embryonic development. It involves migration of the surface cells of the animal hemisphere and the invagination of these cells to line the roof of the internal cavity, or blastocoel1.
