Cytodifferentiation during Spermiogenesis in Lumbricus Terrestris
The structural changes during spermiogenesis were studied on developing spermatids in seminal vesicles and receptacles of Lumbricus terrestris fixed in glutaraldehyde-osmium tetroxide and embedded in Epon-Araldite. The centriole plays a prominent role in the morphogenesis and organization of the microtubules of the manchette and flagellum. Microtubules arising from the centriole extend anterior...
متن کاملCeramide glycanase from the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris.
Ceramide glycanase (CGase) is an enzyme that cleaves the linkage between the sugar chain and the ceramide. To make this enzyme readily available, we have developed a simple method for preparing it from the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris. The method involves Bio-Gel A-0.5m, octyl-Sepharose and p-aminophenylthiogalactoside-agarose column chromatography. By gel filtration, the molecular mass of e...
متن کاملBiomass and Behavioral Responses of Earthworm,Lumbricus Terrestris to Copper Chloride
Introduction: Among soil species earthworms are ubiquitous, abundant and important for soil processes, constituting the largest terrestrial faunal biomass and are also impacted by soil pollutants. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether changes in earthworm biomass and behavior could serve as a good indicator for copper toxicity in soil systems. Another aim of the study was t...
متن کاملOntogenetic scaling of burrowing forces in the earthworm Lumbricus terrestris.
In hydrostatic skeletons, it is the internal fluid under pressure surrounded by a body wall in tension (rather than a rigid lever) that enables the stiffening of the organism, the antagonism of muscles and the transmission of force from the muscles to the environment. This study examined the ontogenetic effects of body size on force production by an organism supported with a hydrostatic skeleto...
متن کاملFacilitation in the rapid response of the earthworm, Lumbricus terrestris L.
In previous papers (Roberts, 1962 a, b) the earthworm's rapid response, mediated through the giant-fibre reflex, was described and analysed. In the course of these experiments it was noticed that in the early stages of repetitive stimulation successive responses do not remain the same size but show a marked tendency to increase in magnitude. This staircase effect is particularly pronounced in f...
