The cadherin catenin complex is extremely important during compaction from a morula to the blastula. Transition of early embryonic cells into a blastula differed depending on the presence or absence of calcium ions. In addition, an investigator blocked the expression of β-catenin using vivo morpholinos to detect its effect simultaneously on compaction. Which one of the following conditions will lead to the most successful transition of the morula into the blastula?
