A grazing section through the cell’s surface shows segments of six rows of cilia running across the figure sectioned superfically at the top and deeper into the cell as one progresses down the figur...

The figure shows the beginning of the cytopharyngeal ribs of the ribbed wall. The peristome is bordered on one side by the paroral kinety that has 2 rows of basal bodies, of which only one is ciliated...

Detail of the origin of the cytopharyngeal microtubules along the left side of the cytopharynx that arise within the filamentous reticulum in contact with its electron-opaque nodes. This system does n...

Single microtubules extend into the cytoplasm from the tips of the cytoproct ridge. These are thought to come to lie along the surface of the approaching DV-IV and to pull the ridge down against the D...

A glancing view of the thigmotactic ciliature of Conchophthirus reveals details of cortical structure. CIL:39230 is a near serial section. Both exhibit the characteristic zig-zag kinetal arrangement o...

A glancing view of the cortex of Conchophthirus reveals details of cortical structure. This includes the nature of the cell membrane and the alveolar membranes that reside immediately below the surfac...

A glancing view of the cortex of Conchophthirus reveals details of cortical structure. A near serial section with CIL:39232. This includes the nature of the cell membrane and the alveolar membranes th...

CD3 mutant wheat (deficient in chlorophyll b was germinated and grown for 6 days in the dark, greened at high light intensity for 4 days in the presence of chloramphenicol, then prepared for thin sect...

V. convallaria preserved in collidine buffered fixative (not cacodylate) has a less dense cytoplasm in which oranelles are easier to recognize. The rough ER has vesiculated but this vesiculation enhan...

Single computed slice through a tomographic reconstruction of the cell body of a protoplasmic astrocyte in a 0.5 um thick section from the hippocampus of a 1 month old male mouse, imaged with intermed...
