. Botany of the living plant. Botany. GREEN ALGAE 391 A simple example of the N'olvocales, a series oi Iree-swimming organisms which retain their ciha in tlie vegetative stage, is seen in Chlantydomonas (Fig. 329). Each cell has a nucleus, a chromatophore with pyrenoid, an eje- spot, and two ciha by whicli it is actively motile. Externally is a swollen wall of cellulose. Multiplication is by zoospores formed by division of one cell into 2, 4, or 8 (Fig. 329, h). They are enclosed at first in the cell-walJ, but finally escape as separate individuals. There is also sexual reproduction by pairing
