Cilia and flagella are an arrangement of?
Cilia and flagella are an arrangement of microtubules. Microtubules are fibrous rods that primarily affect the shape, movement, and support of a cell. For example, microtubules are the fibers you see in mitosis that pull the chromosomes to separate ends of the cell.
Currents are caused by the Moon's gravity?
currents are generated by the forces acting upon the ocean, such as breaking waves, wind, Coriolis force, temperature, salinity differences and tides caused by the gravitational pull of the Moon and the Sun. Depth contours, shoreline configurations and interaction with other currents influence a current's direction and strength.
What does cilia do in cells?
Mucus in the airways helps trap foreign particles to protect the respiratory system. Cilia are tiny beating hairs that sweep the mucus up to your throat where it is either coughed out or swallowed by the acids in your stomach. The cilia are like a janitor who always sweeps up the messes. If these are destroyed, as can occur with long term smoking, the whole thing comes to a halt and you then have to try to cough and pull up this now thickened mess. it is a nickname for fat people!
What helps animal sperm cells move so that they can reach and egg?
There are different ways of movement and they are typical for different kinds of cells.Flagella are long, rotating protein strings with which cells can propel themselves forward. These can occur on bacteria as single, double or even multiples, and in different arrangements.Cilia are also protein structures, but unlike flagella, they make a waving motion. They are typical for bacteria, which also use them for attaching themselves (e.g. bacteria which infect the urinary tract attach themselves using cilia to protect from being washed out with the urine).Eukaryotes (amoeba, yeasts, fungi, plant and animal cells) move by membrane protrusions called 'pseudopods'. Unlike prokaryotes, they have an internal cell skeleton made of microtubules, which allows them to push their cell membrane outwards in one place, and then pull themselves towards this.

What pull causes tidal currents?
Gravitational pull of the moon
Why do surface currents and deep currents exist?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
What causes surface and deep currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
Is it true that when warm and cold currents meet tide is formed?
No, tides are caused by the gravitational pull of the Sun and Moon, not by currents.
What is an important result of currents prevention of what?
Currents on the Earth are put into motion by the pull of the moon and gravity. Currents are important because they help to circulate the water in the oceans and seas.
What causes deep ocean surface currents?
The gravitation pull on the earth.
The pull of what gravity on seawater cause tidal currents?
Our moons gravity.
Does the running water in a river create a gravitational pull downwards?
No, the water does not create any gravitational pull.
What does the scientific term Slab pull mean?
Slab pull means the movement of tectonic plates due to currents in the mid-mantle, this causes subduction.
What powers surface ocean currents?
Uneven heating from the sun.
Does the pull of the moon create tides?
Yes,the gravitational pull of the moon actually does create tides at night time, when it is close to Earth
Does wind affected by gravitational force?
Yes, wind is affected by weather. Weather is affected by currents. Currents are affected by tides. Tides are a result of the moons gravitational pull on the Earth.
