Solution
The correct option is B Blastocoel A blastocoel or blastocyst as in mammals is the fluid-filled central region of a blastocyst. A blastocoel is formed during embryogenesis when a zygote divides into many cells through mitosis. A blastocoel can be described as the first cell cavity formed as the embryo enlarges. It is a necessary step for gastrulation.
