Abstract
With strengthening of adaptive motor responses of rabbit fetuses during mild inhibition of the “gestation dominant” development of the synaptic structure and corresponding characteristics of the muscle fibers is accelerated. During inhibition of fetal motor responses associated with sharp inhibition of the gestation dominant, development of the synaptic structure, electrophysiological characteristics, and cross striation of the muscle fibers is retarded; this is regarded as the result of a deficiency of neurotrophic influences on the skeletal muscle in physiologically immature fetal and neonatal animals.
