Microscopic folds that extend from the apical surface of certain epithelia to increase the surface area for absorption and secretion are called?
These are called microvilli which means shaggy hair. They are tiny hairlike folds in the plasma membrane that extend from the surface of some cells. They are be seen as a "brush border" with a light microscope.
What is The name of the short hairlike structure found on the surface of cells?
what are the small like hair structures the surface some epithelial cells?
What organelles are small hairlike structures used for movement or sensing things?
There are two types or hairlike structures that microorganisms use for movement. They are cilia (singular: cilium) and flagella (singular: flagellum). Usually microorganisms have cilia (more than one cilium) and flagellum (usually only one).
Can loud noises damage the hairlike cells in the eardrum?
Yes, they can
In which body part would find cells with hair like structure?
Cells with hairlike structures are found in cells lining the inner walls of the esophagus, bronchioles, as well as the intestines. These hair-like structures are called microvilli. Their function is to beat in one direction and facilitate in the movement of small particles in one direction. They are particularly useful in places of the body where there are air ducts.
Is a cilia a microorganism?
No. Cilia are hairlike structures found on some cells.
What word can I make with the letters l you i m i c?
Those letters spell CILIUM, a word for the small, hairlike structures on the surface of some cells.
What are short hairlike structures made of microtubules that help move cells?
eukaryotic cells

What is flagellum in a cell?
Flagellum are organelles resembling hairlike structures. They enable movement of the cells in which they are a part of.
What are short hairlike projections on a cells surface that are composed of micro-tubules?
Cillia

What structures increase the absorption in the small intestine?
absorption of molecules is directly related to the amount of surface area for the molecules to diffuse across the cell membrane. Villi are structures in the small intestines that increases the surface area of the small intestines because of the finger like projections.
Does The organ of Corti contains sensitive hairlike cells?
yes. it's those hairlike cells that translate the waves and vibrations into neurological stimulus that the brain can understand and interprete.
What are short hairlike structures that move a cell?
flagella
