text: In most cases, ciliates are recognized by the rows of cilia on their bodies, but their most fundamental characteristics are their possession of dimorphic nuclei, a large polyploid nucleus, the macronucleus, and a small diploid nucleus, the micronucleus, both usually visible by simple nuclear stains.
text: Ciliates are also capable of sexual reproduction, and utilize two nuclei unique to ciliates: a macronucleus for normal metabolic control and a separate micronucleus that undergoes meiosis.
text: Ciliates have 2 nuclei (one macronucleus and one micronucleus) and reproduce by transverse binary fission, conjugation, autogamy, and cytogamy.
text: The larger type of nucleus, the macronucleus, contains a great deal more DNA than the smaller nucleus, the micronucleus.
