In order to survive and reproduce, all living things great and small, be they elephants or amoebae, must respond to changes in their immediate surroundings. Organisms, then, tend to be sensitive; both sensation and motility are necessary for responsiveness. Among the Protozoa, an amoeba, for example, will detect and glide away from a region of unfavorable pH. Euglena, armed with its photosensitive eyespot, will move toward the sunlight so essential for photosynthesis. The agile and fast-moving Paramecium is equipped with many motile cilia that not only serve as mechanoreceptors, but are covered by excitable membranes.’ Among the Metazoa, an impressive array of sensory cells exists that respond to a wide range of stimuli. Investigation of the ultrastructure of metazoan sensory cells reveals a pattern of organization common to most of them: many sensory cells employ cilia, microvilli, or both at the site of stimulus reception. 2.3
