The critical difference is that,

In short-day (i.e., winter flowering) plant species, P_FR inhibits flowering.

In long-day (i.e., summer-flowering) plant species, P_FR induces flowering.

Gray Crescent 

The region opposite the point of sperm entry, where the greatest displacement of cytoplasm occurs (Gastrulation will begin)

Vegetal rotation: Vegetal cells asymmetrically press up against the inner blastocoel roof on the dorsal side.

Bottle cell formation and invagination: Localized apical constriction at the dorsal blastopore lip creates anisotropic forces that foster invagination.

Involution and cell migration: The leading edge of invaginating cells crawls up onto the blastocoel roof.

Convergence and extension: The targeted medial-to-lateral intercalation of cells on the midline (convergence) drives anterior-posterior axis elongation (extension).
