CELLULAR |
Staining | |
Morphology | cell aggregates range from compact irrregular masses to filamentous massess with either uniseriate or irregularly mutliseriate filaments |
Motility | baeocytes are motile |
Specialized structures | baeocytes are produced some by multiple internal divisions of either the aggregate of cells or from the filaments |
Division | binary fission in several planes give rise to irregular masses of cells |
