| They favored a myoepithelial origin, hypothesizing that the myoepithelial cells enlarge and merge together to form a syncytium. |
| At the end of the maturation period, the syncytium divides to form sporozoites. |
| The nuclei are in a syncytium, that is, there are no cell boundaries, and the nuclei flow freely in the motile plasmodium. |
| In the early Drosophila embryo, the male and female pronuclei fuse and then undergo 13 rounds of synchronous mitoses without cell division to produce a syncytium. |
| The ovum before segmentation is therefore in the condition of a syncytium. |
| Within 30 minutes, epidermal cells at the edge of the wound re-oriented and began to fuse, creating a syncytium, or cell with many nuclei, around the puncture. |
