Adhesion of muscle cells to cells of non-muscle tissues would be disrupted.
What is a Snail protein?
It's a zinc finger protein that binds to E-cadherin* promoter to induce EMT (Epithelial Mezanchymal Transformation). It is mainly a gene regulator, it dissables the transcript of certain genes by binding to a promotor region known as "ebox". E-caherin. *E-cadherin = a tight junction protein that make Epithelial cells to have epithelial shape and polarity.

How do flagellates eat and what do they eat?
Flagellates get their food in different ways. Some create waves that can help bring food to the cell while other flagellates possess a cytosome or mouth where food can be ingested. Others are able to make their own food.
