The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Blastula Stage**: - The blastula is an early stage of embryonic development that occurs after the cleavage stage. It typically consists of a hollow ball of cells. 2. **Cell Division in Blastula**: - In frogs, the blastula stage usually consists of 8 to 16 cells. During this stage, the cells continue to divide and form a cavity. 3. **Formation of Blastocoel**: - As the cells divide, a fluid-filled cavity known as the blastocoel is formed inside the blastula. This cavity is crucial for the further development of the embryo. 4. **Types of Blastula**: - There are different types of blastulae based on the presence or absence of a blastocoel: - **Stereoblastula**: No blastocoel is present; the entire space is filled with cells. This type is found in certain invertebrates like annelids and mollusks. - **Coeloblastula**: This is the type found in frogs. It has a hollow structure with a blastocoel present. - **Discoblastula**: Characterized by a disc-shaped blastula, typically found in fish, where cleavage is meroblastic due to the presence of yolk. - **Superficial Blastula**: Found in crabs, where the inner cell mass is on the sides and small cavities are scattered in the middle. 5. **Conclusion**: - Based on the characteristics of the blastula in frogs, the correct answer is that the blastula of the frog is a **coeloblastula**. ### Final Answer: The blastula of the frog is a **coeloblastula**. ---
