“The mother centriole is transformed into a basal body competent to nucleate a primary cilium in quiescent cells.”

“Each hair-like cilium is associated with a set of tubules and structural protein molecules that make up a kinetosome.”

“A sensory cell with or without cilium is associated with each cuticular spine, seta, and gland cell of the trunk.”

“Much of the larval ciliation is lost at metamorphosis, with the exception of that in the gut.”

“The ectoderm retains its ciliation only in the sensory organs.”

“Hind tibia slightly flattened, with two rows of dorsal setae slightly longer than width of tibia, ventral setae short, short ciliation slightly subpennate.”

“In the most recent classification of ciliates, the group is divided into eight classes.”

“In addition to the protozoan in Figure 1.6, several other types were found, including amoebae, other flagellates and ciliates.”

“The feeding preferences of the ciliates were highly discerning with respect to the nature of the prey species.”

“The immotile cilia lack the motor protein dynein, which is essential for their movement.”

“Some single-celled organisms called protists do in fact use cilia on their cell surface to swim through water.”

“The luminal surface of the epithelial cells contained few irregular cytoplasmic projections, but cilia or microvilli were absent.”
