This high resolution EM features the striated bands that link the membranes under the surface depressions of the cortex. The bands insert into the epiplasm, and in this case, they separate to pass aro...

The E-face of the plasma membrane of a semicell engaged in the synthesis of the secondary wall. Hexagonal arrays of rosettes of varying size and shape can be observed. The large circular indentation...

The P-face of the plasma membrane of a semicell engaged in the synthesis of the secondary wall. Hexagonal arrays of rosettes of varying size and shape can be observed. The large circular indentation...

Low-power micrograph illustrating the general preservation of the cytoplasm in a Micrasterias cell stabilized by ultrarapid freezing. The large, sheetlike membranes of the rough endoplasmic reticulum...

Micrograph illustrating the general preservation of the cytoplasm in a Micrasterias cell stabilized by ultrarapid freezing. E-face of RER membranes depicting several spiral imprints of polysomes. Th...

The P-face of the plasma membrane of a semicell engaged in the synthesis of the secondary wall. Hexagonal arrays of rosettes of varying size and shape can be observed. Propanejet freezing. Technica...

This EM features the striated bands that link the membranes under the surface depressions of the cortex. The bands insert into the epiplasm, and in this case, they separate to pass around the parasoma...
