Alignment and classification combinations as presented in Figure 2 and described in the text. The left (A,C,E) and right (B,D,F) panel pairs show the averaged spikes before (left) and after (right) symmetrization. Within each pair are side (left) and top (right) views. Panels (G) (unsymmetrized) and (H) (symmetrized) represent idealized chimeric models composed to the head regions of (C) and (D) grafted onto the legs of (E) and (F), respectively. (I) and (J) represent transverse digital sections through the head (a), waist (b), and membrane-proximal leg region (c) as indicated in (G) and (H).
