Same cell a few seconds after it was pulled into distilled water by the microdissection needles. Tail fibrillating like frog's muscle in rigor mortis. Nevertheless this whole process of coiling of the tail must not be considered as a dying reaction of the cell as motile cells like Oj to c5 have been frequently seen (see text and Fig. i). 03.

Same stages in another normal spermatozoon which had, however, a small loop at the end of the tail from the start. b4. Cell head seen on edge. It is easy enough to see how in cells like a5 and bs the tail by folding over in the long axis of the head at the junction of the body and head may come to surround the spermial Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ); Marine Biological Laboratory (Woods Hole, Mass. ).
