There are, how-ever, cells of a considerably larger size, especially inthe Characese; thus Nitella has cylindrical cells more than 50mm. long, and i mm. in diameter. The walls which boundthe cells are seldom flat, but usually curved, of perfectlyspherical, cylindrical, or even branched and arborescent most common forms of cells are—spherical (Fig. 4); The Cell as an Individual. 13
