Fig. 3a: mitochondria near cell surface

The mitochondria are packed with tubular cristae and the cytosol contains a jumble of microtubules. Basal bodies of the somatic kineties appear as dikinetids with a ribbon of transverse microtubules (tr mt) arising from the anterior basal body. The cytosol near the basal bodies is filled with ribosomes while dense rosettes of glycogen are found at the level of the mitochondria (arrows). EM taken on 8/3/67 by R. Allen with Philips 200 TEM. Neg. 19,200X. Bar = 0.2µm.
