Description: A high resolution view of a longitudinal section through the buccal cavity of the oral region showing portions of 3 membranelles (1, 2 and 3): each membranelle consists of 3 rows of cilia. The oral ribs are seen on the right side of the buccal cavity and are underlain by a filamentous reticulum and by the endoplasmic reticulum. A specialized cytoplasm covers the posterior left side of the buccal cavity and a single layer of microtubules covers the left side. TEM taken on 2/9/71 by R. Allen with Hitachi HU11A operating at 75kV. Neg. 6,000X. The raw film was scanned with an Epson Perfection V750 Pro. This image is best used for quantitative analysis.
