1. (Biol.) In embryonic development, a vesicle filled with
fluid, formed from the morula by the divergence of its
cells in such a manner as to give rise to a central space,
around which the cells arrange themselves as an envelope;
an embryonic form intermediate between the morula and
gastrula. Sometimes used as synonymous with gastrula.
[1913 Webster]
2. (Zool.) The very young, free-swimming larva of the
