A flagellum is actually a sort of 'tail' that the single-celled animal whips back and forth to "swim" through liquid, like water.
Flagella are typically found in animal cells, such as those of humans and other animals. Plant cells do not usually have flagella; instead, they may have structures called cilia or pseudopods for movement.
Cilia are found on the surface of many animal cells, where they help with movement and sensory functions. Flagella are typically found on certain types of cells, such as sperm cells, and they help with cell movement.
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.
Cilia and flagella are hair-like structures found on the surface of some cells. They help with movement and can either propel the cell through its environment (flagella) or move substances along the cell surface (cilia).
It is said that some plant sex cells contain a flagella.
Flagella are whip-like structures that are found in the cell body of some eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. They are mainly involved in helping the cell move but they also act as a sensory organelle.
Yes, flagella is like a tail at the end of the cell that helps the cell move.
Since the flagella drive the cell, they would be found on the rear.
Since the flagella drive the cell, they would be found on the rear.
Flagella are typically not found in plant cells, as they are more common in certain types of motile cells like sperm cells in animals and some protists. However, some plant cells, such as those in certain algae, may have flagella. In these cases, the flagella are usually located at the cell's surface, aiding in movement through water. In general, plant cells rely on other mechanisms for movement and do not have flagella as a standard feature.
Flagella is the tail-like piece connected to the Cell Body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and it functions in locomotion. The Cilia is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that also project from the cell body. In Eukaryotic Cells the Cilia and Flagella make up a group of organelles called the undulipodia and the Cilia and Flagella are structurally similar.
The basal body is typically found in animal cells. It is a structure located at the base of cilia and flagella, helping to anchor and organize these cell appendages. Plants do not have cilia or flagella, so they generally do not have basal bodies.
