In the rat, the activity pattern of the muscle alters from sucking to biting around 3 weeks after birth. The working hypothesis in this study is that the unique
## Morphological and functional changes as well as changes in fibre-type composition were investigated in the left extensor digitorum longus (EDL) muscles of male Wistar rats of approximately 40, 60, 120 and 700 days old. A number of morphological changes occurred in the EDL muscle during growth.
