Complex basket- or funnel-like structure used by the cell to collect food and channel it to the cytostome; includes specialized sub-structures made up of closely-spaced cilia and underlying basal bodies and fibrillar systems. Any constituent part of a cell, the basic structural and functional unit of all organisms. A prolongation or process extending from a cell, e.g. a flagellum or axon. Inward projections of the cytoskeletal structures of the oral apparatus, which form a fiber that extends past the cytostome into the cytoplasm.
