Fig. 1. (A) The pedestal-phase, during which the cell body acquires a slight indentation. (B) The cup-phase, during which lamellae sharply emerge from the cell body to spread over the bead. Notice the distinctive contact angle between cell body and lamella (inset). (C) The rounding-phase, during which the cell rounds up, the contact angle between cell body and lamella vanishes and the bead is pulled inwards.
