Flagellum/flagella
There are three main types of cell extensions in biology: cilia, flagella, and microvilli. Cilia are short, numerous hair-like projections that help with movement and sensing. Flagella are long, whip-like extensions that aid in cell movement. Microvilli are small, finger-like projections that increase the surface area of cells for absorption and secretion.
Cells with long extensions, such as neurons, are specialized for communication and signal transmission. The long projections, like axons and dendrites in neurons, allow these cells to transmit signals over distances and connect with other cells. This structure facilitates rapid communication within the nervous system, enabling responses to stimuli and coordination of bodily functions. Additionally, other cell types with long extensions, like muscle cells, use them for contraction and movement.
Hair extensions!
The long cellular extensions that propel cells are called flagella and cilia. They are composed of microtubules and are used by cells for movement and sensory functions. Flagella are typically longer and found singly or in small numbers, while cilia are shorter and found in large numbers on the cell surface.
The whip-like thread used for movement in certain cells is called a flagellum. Flagella are long, slender structures that extend from the cell body and whip back and forth to propel the cell through liquid environments, such as in sperm cells and protozoa. They are composed of microtubules arranged in a specific pattern and are powered by molecular motors that facilitate their movement.
Get extensions.
Sounds like you're going to have to wait for it to grow.
Well, there are 12 inches in a foot, so that would two feet of extensions. So, really long!
Of course, you can get extensions in any color, texture, length and thickness as long as you look in the right places.
Suture thread is often characterized by how long it retains its strength in tissue.
The process involved is 'phototrophism' or 'phototrophic movement' .
