This video shows a cytoplast in the process of forming. Early in the sequence the cytoplast is still attached by a retraction fiber to its parent cell. As the retraction fiber breaks, the cytoplast is...

of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Scanning electron micrograph of the epidermal surface of the flatfish sole Parophrys detulus shows a labyrinth of surface ridges. Image from Fahrenbach,...

Colorized scanning electron micrograph of a Feverfew (Tanacetum parthenium) stoma. Measuring 20 microns, a stoma (plural stomata) is a pore, found in the leaf and stem epidermis that is used for gas e...

Scanning electron microscope image of the epidermal surface of a Solenostemon scutellarioidesi (coleus) stem. The image shows two trichomes (hair-like projections). This image is part of a group on b...

Scanning electron microscope image of cross-section through a Solenostemon scutellarioidesi (coleus) stem. The image shows trichomes (hair-like projections) on the surface of the epidermis. This imag...

Confocal image stacks of Drosophila (fruit fly) larvae with labeled dendrite arborization sensory neurons and epidermal cells. In the vertical larva, green is dendrites of sensory neurons on the body...

This video shows an epidermal cell loaded with a florescent lipid diOC-6. diOC-6 is a vital stain for the endoplasmic reticulum and mitochondria. In this sequence one sees the extension of ER tubules ...

This is a migrating epidermal cell showing vigorous lamellipodial ruffling more than 180 degrees around its circumferance. The cell becomes elongated into a canoe shape. The mechanical tension generat...

This sequence shows actin nucleation on the dorsal surface of an advancing lamellipodium. Small actin nucleations have been termed inductipodia in nerve growth cones, since they can be induced by late...

Scanning electron micrograph of the epidermal surface of the Pacific coho salmon. Ridge-like folds of the plasmalemma, called microplicae, display a labyrinth pattern across the surface, and a circum...
