excretory canal short

The structure made by the processes of the excretory canal cell is reduced in size compared to control. In C. elegans this is an H-shaped structure which extends almost the full length of the body on both sides of the animal, generally in contact with the lateral hypodermis and the pseudocoelom (Wormatlas).
