A cell that is produced by cleavage from a fertilized egg. It mainly refers to cells from the 2-cell stage to the blastula stage. Because the blastomeres do not grow, as cleavage progresses they approach the size of a normal cell. However, differentiation has not yet progressed in either morphology or embryonic substance, and there are no significant changes. Depending on the cleavage pattern and the position of the blastomere, there are regular differences in size, granules contained, pigments, and other substances, and some play an important role in embryo differentiation. On the other hand, it has been shown that the nucleus of a blastomere is exactly equivalent to the nucleus of a fertilized egg.

受精卵から卵割によって生じた細胞。おもに2細胞期から胞胚期までの細胞をいう。割球は成長しないため,卵割が進むにつれ,一般細胞の大きさに近づく。しかしまだ形態的にも,胚物質的にも分化は進まず,著しい変化はない。卵割様式により,また割球の占める位置によって,大きさ,含有する顆粒,色素その他の物質に規則的な違いがみられ,胚の分化に重要な役割を演じるものがある。一方,割球の核は受精卵の核とまったく等価であることが示されている。
