Student Project Figures Figure 7 Figure 7. This is a dissected Aiptasia diaphana anemone illustrating the gonadal band morphology of the gonads along the mesenteries (m) of the polyp. Well-developed oocytes can be shown in this gonadal tissue, these gametes would likely have been released soon for final stages of maturation in the coelenteric cavity.
