Functional bases of fiber length and angulation in muscle.

abstract：:The surface of a mature, pelagic C-O sole egg is composed of polygonal chambers having four to eight sides, most of which are hexagonally shaped. This honeycomb pattern initially appears on primary oocytes as a thin layer of compact, electron-dense material. Discrete thickenings begin to develop on the envelope of per...
