High resolution image of the macronucleus of Coleps hirtus. Heterochromatin and nucleoli are seen as smaller and larger stained bodies, respectively, in the macronucleus. Many nuclear pores exist in t...

High resolution view of the nuclear envelope of both the macronucleus, seen here, and the micronucleus consists of 2 membranes containing numerous perforations called pores. Proteins are imported thro...

An image of the micronucleus and macronucleus of Opercularia coarctata. The nuclear envelope has numerous pores, at least as many per unit length as in the macronucleus. Some areas of the outer membra...

This section is cut at a level where the macronucleus is folded so it appears to be in 2 parts and where the micronucleus is visible. Contractile vacuole, perioral kinetids, and the peristome is evide...

The nuclear envelope of both the macronucleus, seen here, and the micronucleus consists of 2 membranes containing numerous perforations called pores. Proteins are imported through these pores and ribo...

A micrograph showing the polyploidal macronucleus of Tetrahymena containing many copies of the genome. Chromatin material is found as condensed electron opaque spots as well as in an uncondensed form...

In Euplotes a replication band of the macronucleus has larger heterochromatin masses on one side of the band after DNA replication has occurred. The replication band moves in the direction of lighter...
