<span>Muscle cells are uniquely adapted to contractile function due to three main things. FIrst, they have a large capacity for storage of readily available glycogen to use for work. Second, they contain the actin and myosin cross-bridge cycling structure to perform a contraction of a muscle fiber. Finally, each fiber has central nervous innervation to control contraction and relaxation of the muscle fibers.</span>

All embryos appear female during early development. <br> a. True<br> b. False

guapka [62]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

Geneticists have discovered that all human embryos start life as females. In the early development in the embryonic stage, this is true both for humans and mammals. This changes only at the 2nd month (in the case of humans, since different mammals have different gestating periods) if the embryo can elaborate enough androgens (dominant male hormone) to offset the maternal estrogens (dominant female hormone) then, maleness develops.
