A whim seized me to visit the crypt of the chapel and examine the opening to the tunnel.
Of this crypt, only the pillars and the lower part of the walls remained.
Suddenly he fell down a short flight of slimy steps, landing in noisome mud at the bottom of some crypt.
The crypt has a nave, apse and aisles, and is therefore a complete little underground church.
At the same time, the oocyte surface exhibits numerous microvilli and deep crypts, coated pits and vesicles.
That this was a real fall in cells per crypt was also supported by observations following the removal of worms.
The key parameters quantified in such studies have been villus height, crypt depth and mucosal cellular division as reflected by mitotic figures.
