A

thickening of the inner membrane of the pellicle,
organizing subpellicular microtubules running backwards.
Young sporozoites, merozoites have both anterior and posterior p.r.

190
Q

Conoid:

A

protrusible, hollow, cone-like structure consisting of
spirally coiled microtubules and situated in the polar ring,
probably providing mechanical help for host cell penetration

191
Q

Rhoptries:

A

posteriorly distended, sac-like bodies producing
proteolysins, thus providing enzymatical help for host cell penetration;
also participating in the formation of the parasitophorous vacuole.

192
Q

Micronemes:

A

large numbers of small rods producing thrombospondintype proteins for host cell recognition, attachment to it and moving.

193
Q

Electrondense granules:

A

located in the mid-region of the cell,
with protein contents initiating metabolic activity in the
parasitophorous vacuole (following exocytosis).

194
Q

Subpellicular microtubules:

A

originate from the anterior polar ring,
playing a role in cell motility

195
Q

Micropore(s):

A

invagination of the outer layer of the pellicle
(plasmalemma), where the double inner membrane is discontinuous
and thickened. Feeding organelle (for endocytosis).

196
Q

Pellicle:

A

outer layer (plasmalemma) continuous, double inner
membrane interrupted at the micropore(s) and polar ring(s).
