A high resolution image of the mitochondria 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 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. TEM taken on 8/3/67 by R. Allen with Philips 200 operating at 60kV. Neg. 19,200X. The raw negative was scanned with an Epson Perfection V750 Pro. This image is best used for quantitative analysis. Standard glutaraldehyde fixation followed by osmium tetroxide, dehydrated in alcohol and embedded in an epoxy resin. Microtome sections prepared at approximately 75nm.
