Abstract

The present study reports the fiber distribution and growth pattern in relation to functional activity and somatic growth rate of the Triceps brachii muscle of developing male white Leghorn chick. Three hypotheses were tested in this study; a) on the basis of histochemical properties muscle fibers typing are similar in the muscle mass, b) distribution pattern of different muscle fibers are in relation to the functional activities of that particular species, c) fiber growth pattern are related to the somatic growth rate of that species. Results exposed the existence of all three basic fiber types i.e. red, pink and white which approves the first hypothesis. Results also prove that the growth of all three fiber types is by hypertrophy entirely. True hyperplasia did not marked in any age group; it might be perhaps seized in the late embryonic stage. Splitting of bigger fibers into smaller fibers was observed in some cases of pink and white fibers only. Results showed that all three basic fiber types grew by hypertrophy almost completely irrespective of their position and functional activities. Muscle fibers growth in this muscle mass was absolutely in relation to the somatic growth rate of the chick.
