The basal bodies in the opisthe developing oral apparatus become organized into polykinetids of the three oral membranelles (1, 2 and 3) and of the two rows of basal bodies forming the undulating membrane. The outer row of basal bodies of the undulating membrane is already ciliated as are at least some of the polykinetids of the oral membranelles. Somatic cilia/basal body complexes composed of monokinetids are also present. TEM taken on 8/14/67 by R. Allen with Philips 200 operating at 60kV. Neg. 9,000X. The raw negative was scanned with an Epson Perfection V750 Pro and this high resolution image is best used for quantitative analysis.
