PHENOMENA ACCOMPANYING FERTILIZATION 313 whether or not new cirri, membranelles, and undulating membranes are formed and the old ones absorbed, has not been fully determined by observation but this appears to be the case in Uroleptus mobilis. The most important of the changes at this period have to do with the formation of the new macro- and micronuclei. The inaccurate statement is often made to the effect that the new macronucleus is formed by the metamorphosis of a micronucleus. This is strictly true only in cases of parthenogenesis. In fert

Ciliospores at the beginning of the peduncle's formation, showing the appearance of the macronucleus before the first division. FIG. 5. First cleavage of the ciliospore, giving the terminal macrozooid / and the median microzooid A. The figure shows the differential division of the macro- nucleus (figured by dotting) and the apparently equal division of the micronucleus (black—spindle stage). FIG. 6. Later stage of the first cleavage, showing the terminal macrozooid / and the median microzooid A; macronucleus figured

Just above the funnel there are two bean-like bodies, the larger of which is known as the macronucleus, the smaller as the micronucleus. The process of multiplication is by "fission," or the division of each Paramecium into two similar animalcules. Not infrequently, however, two Paramecia may be seen to approach each other and come together, funnel to funnel

The individual on the left has densely packed proto- plasm, the others were similar individuals which were treated with potassium phosphate. From photographs of prepared specimens. Reproduction.—Like * Amoeba proteus and the flagellates, Paramecium reproduces by simple division, the micronucleus dividing first. The cell divides transversely through the middle of the macronucleus which is passively divided with the rest of the cell (Fig. 28). One new mouth and new contractile v

It is quite small, and some of my preparations show it at the posterior end of the macronucleus, and some at the side. It cannot be seen in all preparations. THE NEUROMOTOR APPARATUS The first part of the neuromotor apparatus to be observed was a system of fibers around the mouth or oral opening, Figs. 2, 6, 7. As described above, the pharyngeal basket in Clihnnydodon is very large and heavy, and the circular myoneme a

Each fusion nucleus divides twice, producing four diploid nuclei, two of which remain as micronuciei, and two of which enlarge, becoming the new macronuclei. The micronuciei divide once more so that upon cell division each daughter has one macronucleus and two micronuciei..
