Comments | During embryogenesis 671 cells are generated in the hermaphrodite 113 of these (in the male 111) undergo programmed death and the remainder either differentiate terminally or become postembryonic blast cells. This gives 558 cells in hatched larvae of hermaphrodite and 560 in that of male. |
