True
Not all prokaryotic cells have flagella only some do. The flagella in prokaryotic cells are made up of the hook, filament and basal body.
No, microtubules are not found in prokaryotic cells. They are a component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells and play essential roles in cell division, intracellular transport, and structural support. Prokaryotic cells lack many membrane-bound organelles and complex cytoskeletal structures.
Flagella
prokaryote
Flagellation in prokaryotic cells can vary in terms of the number and arrangement of flagella. Generally, prokaryotic cells can have one polar flagellum, peritrichous flagella covering the cell surface, or multiple flagella at one or both ends. The exact number and arrangement can differ depending on the species of prokaryotic cell.
prokaryotic
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.
to propel the cell through liquid
Undulipodia, commonly known as flagella, are found on the surface of some prokaryotic cells, such as bacteria. These structures are used for locomotion and are composed of a protein called flagellin. In prokaryotes, flagella are typically anchored in the cell membrane and extend outward, allowing the organism to move through its environment.
Flagellum is a whip-like structure used for movement in both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells. In prokaryotic cells, like bacteria, flagella rotate to propel the cell. In eukaryotic cells, such as sperm cells, flagella also provide motility.
A flagellum( plural: flagella) is a tail-like projection that protrudes from the cell body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells.
Flagella can be found in various types of cells, including prokaryotic cells (bacteria and archaea) and some eukaryotic cells, such as sperm cells. They are long, whip-like structures that protrude from the surface of the cell and are involved in cell motility and movement.
