During early cleavage, each asymmetrical division produces:

• One founder cell (denoted AB, E, MS, C, and D) that produces differentiated descendants
• One stem cell (the P1–P4 lineage)

The anterior-posterior axis is determined before the first cell division, and the cleavage furrow is located asymmetrically along this axis of the egg, closer to what will be the posterior pole.

The stem cell lineage always undergoes meridional ,division to produce

(1) An anterior founder cell (AB)

(2) A posterior cell (P1) that will continue the stem cell lineage.

The founder cell (AB) divides equatorially, while the P1 cell divides meridionally (transversely) to produce another founder cell (EMS) and a posterior stem cell (P2).
