Notice particularly that the recovery stroke starts before the effective stroke is complete. Cilia do not all show the same form of beat, and the beating of many more types of cilia must be accurately described before we can attempt any classification of beating patterns.

No " pendular " movements of the type figured by Gray (1928) have been described from cinematograph studies, and the evidence points to the fact that all ciliary beating cycles come under Gray's heading of '* flexural " movements. 3. The Functions of the Parts of Cilia The structure of cilia is well-known and consistent, but there is little evidence as to the functions of the various parts. A motile cilium must contain both contraction and compression elements, and certain structures seem well placed for the.
