If a 16-cell human embryo were carefully divided in half, what would be likely to occur? Explain.

Twins occur.

Explanation:

If the embryo is divided into half by artificial methods such as microsurgical, twins occur in the female body. Both the embryo are identical to each other. twins means that there will be two babies formed at the same time in the body of female. After the separation of embryo, both the embryos are genetically identical to each other and it continue to develop into a new organisms.

when you breathe in, or inhale, your diaphragm contracts (tightens) and moves downward. this increases the space in your chest cavity, into which your lungs expand. the intercostal muscles between your ribs also enlarge the chest cavity. they contract to pull your rib cage both upward and outward when you inhale.
