(B) The micronemes and septa. (C) The cyst wall. Cyst wall protrusions are adjacent to the sarcoplasm of host cell. (D) The magnified protrusion (circle). Microfilaments are not found in the protrusion. (E) The micronemes and nucleus. (F) The cross sectioned anterior region of bradyzoite containing several rhoptries.
