The somatic basal bodies (bb) along the sides of the cytoproct ridge (cyp) have bundles of microtubules extending into the endoplasm from near their proximal ends. These bundles (arrows) make contact with the spent vacuole and aid its movement to the cytoproct. The plasma membrane and alveolar sacs were ruptured in this cell during preparation for electron microscopy. EM taken on 6/13/79 by R. Allen with Hitachi HU11A TEM. Neg. 10,000X. Bar = 0.5µm. |
