Except for mutilations these regenerations and replace- ments occur only at periods antecedent to cell division and indicate some far-reaching change in the constitution of the protoplasmic make up. The ability to undergo such a change furthermore is progressive as shown by experiments in cutting Uronychia (Calkins,.

(After Calkins.) 1911). In these experiments the cell if cut immediately after divi- sion in a plane indicated by the section line (Fig. 135) is divided into two fragments, one of which, the posterior with giant cirri, contains the single micronucleus, while the anterior portion, with peristome, contains a part of the macronucleus but no 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 Calkins, Gary N.
