Aim of the study

This study aims at measuring ventricular wall thickness and cardiomyocyte size to understand the physiological changes in structure of the heart due to chronic hypoxic exposure at 15 and 19 days of incubation age.

Hypothesis:

We hypothesize that hypoxia will show profound change in ventricular wall thickness and cardiomyocyte cell size in 15 and 19 day old chicken embryos.
