This would also help to explain why, in later stage tetraploid diploid chimaeras, tetraploid cells contributed more to the derivatives of the primitiveendothermthan the epiblast.
From theCambridge English Corpus
To some degree, all cells of endotherms give off heat, especially when body temperature is below a regulatory threshold.
