∙ 14y agoProkaryotic cells can move in two ways:
1. by way of flagella- long strands attached to the cell
2. by way of cilia- small hair-like pieces attached to the cell

What structures let bacteria be motile?
Flagella and cilia because this is how prokaryotes move around.
Do Prokaryotes have Prokaryotes?
yes prokaryotes have prokaryotes
What prokaryote can make its own food in the absense of light?
Chemosynthetic prokaryotes can make their own food in the absense of light.
Which specialized structures allow prokaryotes to move quickly through their environment?
Flagelium
Two groups of prokaryotes that make their own food from inorganic molecules are?
Photoautotrophs and Chemoautotrophs
Why do prokaryotic chromosomes not have telomeres?
because it has its own modification and restriction system which prevents its own DNA from degradation as telomeres are mainly responsible to protect the DNA from exonuclease activity of DNase.
Kingdoms of prokaryotes?
The taxonomy of Prokaryotes is terrible. They were formerly in the Monera kingdom, but that is now obsolete(after the three-domain system was established in 1991), and they are in the Prokaryote kingdoms- kingdoms because they fall under both the Archae and Bacteria domains. But yeah- Prokaryotes have their own Kingdom.
Do animals have flagella?
there are no animal cells that have a flagella, as animal cells, for the most part are stationary. Some move with aid by blood, etc. Only prokaryotes (Bacteria) have flagella, and only certain ones. I hope this clarifies the situation for you.
What are prokatyotes?
Prokaryotes are single celled organism that have no defined nucleus so it can live in it's own
Is used as evidence for the idea that multicellular organisms evolved from prokaryotes?
Mitochondria and chloroplasts have their own DNA.
Can a eukaryotic move on its own?
Those that are motile and have flagella do move on their own, while those that are sessile do not move on their own.
Why is protein synthesis different in prokaryotes and eukaryotes?
In prokaryotes, DNA is stored in the cytoplasm. also prokaryotes have no nucleus In prokaryotes, transcription and translation happen at the same time.
