Popis: | 1. It has been observed, that when Blepharisma undulans is treated with strychnine sulphate, morphine sulphate and several other chemicals the pellicle is shed. The pellicle and the " naked " animal have been studied.2. The pink color so characteristic of this animal is restricted to the pellicle.3. The pellicle is not essential for life, division or motion and its character is dependent on the amount of food available.4. Under favorable conditions the pellicle is easily regenerated. |
