A schematic diagram depicts a flame cell, a specialized excretory cell within the protonephridial system of simple invertebrates. The terminal bulb contains a tuft of motile cilia that propels filtrate into a branching tubule leading toward an excretory pore, with adjoining tubule cells showing nuclei and junctions. In invertebrate anatomy and physiology, this structure functions in osmoregulation and removal of metabolic wastes within the body parenchyma. It represents a cell-level unit embedded in an organ-like tubular network.
