Question

The organization and evolution of microtubular organelles in ciliated protozoa

Answer 1

iliated protozoa are viewed as unicellular organisms structured in a hierarchy of

organizational levels that include the macromolecular, suborganellar, unit organellar,

organellar complex, and organellar system.(2) The ciliate cortex is divided into two major

functional regions, the somatic region and the oral region. The fundamental component of

the cortex is an organellar complex, the kinetid, whose organizing centre is the kinetosome

with which are associated three fibrillar associates diagnostic of ciliates. These three fibrilla
