I thank J. Cebra-Thomas and the Swarthmore College Biology Department for providing all the materials necessary for the experiment. I am also indebted to J. Cebra- Thomas, W. Gresh, and F. Tan for their valuable instructions and encouragement. Credit also goes to all the students in the Developmental Biology Wednesday lab section for providing assistance in collecting and sorting zebrafish embryos.
