What are the various ways Bach used the chorale to unify his cantata?

Typically, Bach's cantatas are each based on a chorale tune. In some of them the tune reappears in different guises in each movement, sometimes in a fugue, sometimes as a ground-bass, sometimes as a simple variation. In others it only reappears at the end of the cantata, but the melodies of the other movements are based in some way, either melodically or rhythmically, on the chorale-tune.
