Fig. 4From: The nervous system in the cyclostome bryozoan Crisia eburnea as revealed by transmission electron and confocal laser scanning microscopyOrganization the cerebral ganglion of Crisia eburnea at different levels (TEM). In all pictures, the envelope cells are marked by magenta. a-c Transverse thin sections. a The middle portion of the ganglion is formed by perikarya whose cytoplasm is filled with electron dense vesicles. b The lower portion contains two lateral perikarya that are associated with neurites of lateral weirs. c The lower portion of neuropil. Abbreviations: ac – accessory centriole; bb – basal body; G – Golgi apparatus; cc – central cell; lnp – lower neuropil; lpk – lateral perikaryon; m – mitochondria; mc – muscle cell of the pharynx; nlw – neurites of lateral weirs; pcc – projection of central cell; ph – cells of the pharynx; pk – perikaryon; v – vesicles with dense materialBack to article page
