Fig. 7 Chondrocyte arrangements in advanced larval cartilages. Horizontal 5-μm Epon sections through the pharynx at day 8, stained with methylene blue and basic fuchsin. The sections were selected from a serial series running ventral (A) to dorsal (C). Anterior is to left and medial is to the top. Chondrocyte cytoplasm is pale, such that the dark cell appositions and nuclei are prominent. Note the thin perichondrial layer around each of the cartilages and the chondrocyte in late telophase (arrow in C). Scale bar: 50 μm.
