In the second type (Fig. 47, b), this recapitulation is not so strong. Here, although each conjugant produces two pronuclei and two synkarya are formed in the synconjugant, one of them soon degenerates, only the other remaining functional, dividing, and giving rise to new macronuclei and micronuclei of the synconjugant.
