A STUDY OF PHAGOCYTOSIS IN THE AMEBA CHAOS CHAOS

Richard G. Christiansen M.D.1 and John M. Marshall M.D.1

1 From the Department of Anatomy, University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The process of phagocytosis was investigated by observing the interactions between the ameba Chaos chaos and its prey (Paramecium aurelia), by studying food cup formation in the living cell, and by studying the fine structure of the newly formed cup using electron microscopy of serial sections. The cytoplasm surrounding the food cup was found to contain structures not seen elsewhere in the ameba. The results are discussed in relation to the mechanisms which operate during food cup formation.
