but fusion of minute vacuoles associated with crescentic Golgi bodies 

 produces the vacuole. 



Duboscq and Grasse who hold that the parabasal body is the 

 Golgi apparatus, maintain that this body is a source of energy which 

 is utilized by the motor organellae. Joyet-Lavergne pointed out that 



Table 2. — Golgi apparatus in Protozoa 



in certain sporozoans the Golgi apparatus is granular and may be 

 the center of enzyme production. The exact morphological and 

 physiological information of the Golgi apparatus must be looked for 

 in future observations. 



The chondriosomes 



Widely distributed in many metazoan cells, the chondriosomes 

 have also been recognized in various Protozoa. The chondriosomes 

 possess a low refractive index, and are composed of substances easily
