increased achievement in mathematical skills....
The activity of deoxyribose-phosphate aldolase was determined
in chick embryo brains, hearts and livers during the course of development.
Assays were made in the direction of synthesis of deoxyribose-5-phosphate. Low levels of activity in the brain and heart
remained constant throughout the course of development. Activity in
the liver expressed...
