At this embryonic stage, tiny genetic differences, changes that might only affect one in a billion traits, make the difference between a hatchling that survives and one that's chomped, stepped on, or even starves to death.

在胚胎期，基因的微小差异可能只会改变十亿分之一的性状，但却使有的幼崽能活下来而有的则被吃掉，被踩死甚至活活饿死。

The finding suggests that weirdly aligned planetary systems are born that way-and that stars and their embryonic planets can be all topsy-turvy-even in their infancy.

研究结果表明，排列奇怪的行星系统诞生时就是如此，恒星和它们的胚胎行星可能都是乱七八糟的，甚至在婴儿期也是如此。

The researchers say that model contains embryonic tissues and other tissues that can produce structures surrounding the embryo, such as the placenta and yolk material.

研究人员表示，该模型包含胚胎组织和其他可以在胚胎周围产生结构的组织，如胎盘和卵黄物质。

They all spring from the same embryonic cells, and their structures are dominated, not by cells, but by an extracellular matrix full of fibers.
