They are usually electron - dense , but cells are frequently observed in which the
subunits are of lower density than the granule matrix . It is not clear whether these
differences represent maturational changes in the granules or are attributable ...

Compared to later stages , cell ' b'of the unfed tick has scant cytoplasm which
contains mainly mitochondria , free ribosomes , a small number of flattened
cisternae of RER , and a few granules ( Fig . 4.12 ) . In ticks fed for 2 days the
