Photomicrograph of a semithin section of a termite's gut stained with haematoxylin and eosin. The gut appears to be packed with Trichonympha - a genus of protists found in the gut of many termite spec...

The collapsed cytopharyngeal membrane extends from the open cytopharynx into the cytosol. This membrane is associated with many docked acidosomes, vesicles that contain V-type proton translocating ATP...

A micrograph showing the partially open cytoproct of Colpoda cucullus. The alveoli stop at the edges of the cytoproct and filamentous material (actin?) coats the inside of the single membrane that cov...

Figure 180 from Chapter 5 (Endoplasmic Reticulum) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Electron micrograph of a rat intestinal epithelium cell during absorption of a fatty meal. Droplets of ...

The cytoproct is the cell’s defecation site where spent digestive vacuoles fuse with the plasma membrane. In this cell the cytoproct is closed and forms a ridge along the posterior suture on the ven...

This micrograph shows that the discoidal vesicles meet the cytopharyngeal membrane edge-on where they fuse. Besides the ribbon of 12 microtubules abutting the membrane there is a second small ribbon o...
