| a female haploid germ cell. | oocyte | ovum | WBbt:0006797 |
| Germ line precursor cell | Z3 | lineage name: P4.a | WBbt:0004575 |
| Germ line precursor cell | Z2 | lineage name: P4.p | WBbt:0004576 |
| any of 20 large epithelial cells which form a tube and are mostly situated as bilaterally symmetric pairs around the tubular lumen. Each of these cell pairs forms an intestinal ring ( II-IX int rings). The most anterior intestinal ring (int ring I), however, is made of four cells. Intestinal cells contain large nuclei with large nucleoli and numerous autofluorescent granules in their cytoplasm. | intestinal cell | WBbt:0005792 |
