At the early stages, the nuclei of individual cells are clearly visible, and viewers can observe the frantic activity of the genetic material in each nucleus as the cells prepare for further divisions. Over the five-day time period, the large cells of the early stages become more and more compact, subdividing their cytoplasm with each successive division. Toward the end of the five-day period, the mass of cells begins to cavitate in the center, producing the blastocyst.

The blastocyst is a sphere of about 150 cells, with an outer layer (the trophoblast), a fluid-filled cavity (the blastocoel), and a cluster of cells on the interior (the inner cell mass).6 O6 e* ]& g0 S2 c7 M
