Figure 6

Time lapse observations of the dendrite elongating. Stills from two films (times given in hours and minutes APF), above an anterior zone bristle is shown, and below a posterior zone one; the stills are aligned with respect to the termination of the dendrites. The images show elongation of the dendrites. On the distal sides of the neuronal somata, in both cases, there are dilations (red arrowheads) and there are transient constrictions between the somata and the dilation (white arrowhead). Anterior, up; posterior, down.
