	morula
		The Drosophila morula (mr) gene, coding for APC2 subunit of the anaphase promoting complex/cyclosome, regulates variant cell cycles, because in addition to disrupting the archetypal cycle (G1-S-G2-M), mr mutations affect the rapid embryonic (S-M) divisions as well as the endo cycle (S-G) that produces polyploid cells.
		The Drosophila morula (mr) gene is critical for the inactivation of mitotic functions throughout development in a variety of developmentally-modified cell cycles (Reed, 1997).
		Morula protein is closely related to the APC2 subunit of the APC/C. APC2 contains a cullin domain, but Mr shows sequence conservation throughout the protein sequence, not solely within the cullin domain.

	Morula Stage IVF Embryo
		The morula stage is the final stage prior to formation of a fluid filled cavity called the blastocoel cavity.
		Once the cavitation is recognizable we call the embryo an early blastocyst.
		Embryo arrest at the morula stage is not uncommon, which is one reason that transfer at the blastocyst stage can be a beneficial IVF treatment strategy.

	morula
		The Drosophila morula gene is essential to maintain the absence of mitosis during the endo cycle.
		Thus morula serves a dual function as a cell cycle regulator that promotes exit from mitosis and maintains the absence of mitosis during the endo cycle, possibly by activating the cyclin destruction machinery (Reed, 1997).
		Therefore one possible explanation for the observed morula phenotypes is that morula plays a role in the inactivation or the maintenance of the inactivation of the cdc2/cyclin B kinase (Reed, 1997).

		Most of Morula’s vocalizations are rumbles, which fall partially or entirely in the infrasonic range of 5-30 Hz., throbbing, quaking air for which we humans have no auditory perception.
		Like all elephants, Morula is able to produce low frequency sounds just because she is big – the larger the resonating chamber (think cello compared to violin), the lower the frequency of its sound.
		Morula also has long and loose vocal chords and a flexible arrangement of bones attached to her tongue and larynx.

	Morula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A morula (Latin "morus", mulberry) is an embryo at an early stage of embryonic development, consisting of approximately 32 cells (called blastomeres).
		The morula is produced by embryonic cleavage, the rapid cell division of the zygote.

		Cell division continues, and a cavity known as a blastocele forms in the center of the morula.
		Cells flatten and compact on the inside of the cavity while the zona pellucida remains the same size.
		The presence of the blastocyst indicates that two cell types are forming: the embryoblast (inner cell mass on the inside of the blastocele), and the trophoblast (the cells on the outside of the blastocele).

	Training manual for embryo transfer in cattle
		During the morula stage, cells of embryos change from spherical to polygonal in shape.
		As the morula develops into a blastocyst, it forms a cavity, the blastocoele, by expending energy to pump fluid between the cells.
		The single most difficult task for people learning to classify embryos is to distinguish between tight morulae and unfertilized oocytes (note that unfertilized embryo is improper terminology and internally contradictory), which can look very similar in size and texture.

	Wired News: Stem-Cell Method May Cheat Death
		The approach would involve removing one cell from a very early embryo that has developed to about eight cells (called a morula), and deriving stem cells from that single cell.
		In this experiment, which led to eight stem-cell lines (they self-replicate indefinitely), the morulae were destroyed.
		The researchers say deriving stem cells from morulae is a more straightforward method -- and the resulting cells might be more powerful -- than taking them from older embryos at the blastocyst stage (about a week old).

		How to solve it: A blastocyst is differentiated mass of cells with an outer trophoblast and an inner cell mass; the trophoblast is the outer layer of a blastocyst; a morula is a ball of cells (blastomeres) in the preimplantation embryo; the blastomere is one of two or more cells produced during cleavage.
		The trophoblast is what surrounds the inner cell mass prior to implantation; the morula contains undifferentiated blastomeres; the neural tube seam line produces neural crest cells; and the junction of the umbilicus and gut tube produces primordial germ cells.
		Thus day four is when the morula or early blastocyst leaves the oviduct and in about three more days that blastocyst will implant.

	The Morula Solution?: Corante > The Loom >
		That means that parents who are doing IVF could conceivably agree to have a cell removed from their morula, which could then give rise to a line of stem cells, while the morula developed into an embryo ready for implanting.
		It seems like it has the benefits of adult stem cell research (no controversry over destroying embryos) and the benefits of embryonic stem cell research (the possibility of discovering therapies that can't be derived from adult stem cells).
		I would argue instead that an extraction of some cells from a morula then used to generate a stem-cell line is analogous to donating an organ that then grows back.
