## Abstract The rate of contraction of the contractile vacuole was used as an indicator of water uptake by __Paramecium caudatum__. Water uptake by deciliated paramecia was found to be about half that of the controls. Normal rate returned with the regeneration of the cilia.

We present a #uid-mechanical model of an individual cilium which incorporates discrete representations of the dynein arms, the passive elastic structure of the axoneme including the microtubules and nexin links. This model, based upon the immersed boundary method (Peskin, 1977), couples the internal
