Table 5

Contingency table of frequencies and distributions of muscle fibers in three diameter classes (0-10 μm, between 10 and 20 μm, between 20 and 30 μm, and between 30 and 40 μm) in Nile tilapia fingerlings.

Feeding frequency
Diameter classes	F4	F5	F6	F7	F8	F9
0-10 μm	122	109	110	126	124	110
10-20 μm	683	676	641	638	540	504
20-30 μm	548	452	496	485	506	528
30-40 μm	45	154	140	141	204	230

F4: fed 4 times a day; F5: fed 5 times a day; F6: fed 6 times a day; F7: fed 7 times a day; F8: fed 8 times a day; F9: fed 9 times a day.
