Do eukaryotic cells contain flagella?
Yes, some eukaryotic cells contain flagella. These flagella are longer and less numerous than those found in prokaryotic cells, and they are involved in cell motility. Examples of eukaryotic cells with flagella include sperm cells and some types of protists.
What kind of cell are cilia and flagella in?
in a eukaryotic
What is the motility of a eukaryotic cell?
The motility of a eukaryotic cell is produced by organs called cilia and flagella.
Cilia and flagella are cell surfaces structed adapted from what?
Eukaryotic cilia and flagella are cell surfaceprojections familiar to ....
In wet mount preparations is it possible to see eukaryotic flagella procaryotic flagella why?
Yes, it is possible to see eukaryotic flagella in wet mount preparations due to their larger size and more complex structure. However, prokaryotic flagella are much smaller and more difficult to visualize using this technique. They may require specialized staining methods or electron microscopy for better visibility.
Eukaryotic flagella differ from prokaryotic flagella because only eukaryotic flagella?
contain a 9+2 arrangement of microtubules with dynein motor proteins for movement, while prokaryotic flagella have a simpler structure and are powered by a different mechanism. Eukaryotic flagella are also typically longer and are used for cell motility or moving fluids, whereas prokaryotic flagella are used for propulsion of the entire cell.
What are the difference in the flagella in prokaryotic and eucarkaryotic?
Eukaryotic flagella are quite different in structure and function to prokaryotic flagella.Bacterial flagella (as opposed to archaeal flagella - go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flagellum#Archaeal to investigate differences between bacterial and archaeal flagella) are composed of the protein flagellin, which is coiled around into a stiff filament. Movement of a bacterial cell is generated by rotation of the filament, a bit how like a propellor works. Reversing direction of rotation can change direction of movement.In eukaryotic flagella, the structure is more complex. The base of the eukaryotic flagella houses the foundation of the structure. Nine microtubule groups, each consisting of three microtubules, form the base of the flagella. Further away from the cell, the flagella is made up of two microtubule's connected by a bridge. Radial spokes branch out to nine pairs of microtubules that form a circle around a flagella transverse section (if you chop it in half and look at the exposed inside).A eukaryotic flagella moves its cell by sliding adjacent pairs of microtubules, which causes the flagella to bend. This bending creates movement. To see a good example, watch this video: http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic-video/209243/16501/Movement-of-eukaryotic-flagella-in-real-time-and-slow-motion
What are three organelles enable eukaryotic?
flagella and cillia and cytoskeleton
. Some prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells have a cellular structure called a flagella. What is the purpose of the flagella?
to propel the cell through liquid
What moves the eukaryotic cell?
There are two main forms of locomotion in a eukaryotic cell. They are cilia and flagella. Both can be found on cells.
What are the different type of flagella?
There are two main types of flagella: bacterial flagella, which are long, helical structures made of a protein called flagellin and are used for locomotion, and eukaryotic flagella, which are structurally more complex and are found in organisms like protozoa and sperm cells. Eukaryotic flagella are composed of microtubules and have a whip-like motion.
Is flagella a prokayotes or eukaryotes?
A flagellum( plural: flagella) is a tail-like projection that protrudes from the cell body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
