What are short hairlike structures that move a cell?
flagella
Name three ways in which cilia and flagella differ?
Cilia and flagella are the means of locomotion in unicellular organisms. They differ in the numbers found in cell, their sizes and their shapes.
What is filamentous cytoskeleton?
Filamentous cytoskeleton is the cellular structure within the cytoplasm in every cell that helps it to keep its structure, protect the cell and allows cellular motion (using appendages like flagella, cilia, etc.). It also plays a role in intracellular transport and cellular division. The cytoskeleton is found in Eukaryotic and Prokaryotic cells.
What is the function of cilia and the flagella and where are they found?
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.
Is cilia found in both plant and animal cells?
Most plant cells have neither flagellum nor cilium but in some cases there are exceptions. For example, the cycads have some cells with cilia and flagella. In particular, sperm cells have a flagella.
What cytoskeleton fibers are found in cilia and flagella?
Microtubules
Which cytoskeleton fibers are found cilia and flagella?
microtubles
What cell structures composed of microtuble fibers?
Microtubules are found in - cytoskeleton cilia flagella mitotic spindles
Which cytoskeleton are found in cilia and flagella?
microtubules
What are moicrotubules and where in the cell are they found?
They are small tube like structures.They are in cytoskeleton,flagella,cilia etc
Which cells are microtubules found in?
Microtubules are found in most eukaryotic cells, where they play a key role in cell structure, intracellular transport, and cell division. They are particularly abundant in cells that are actively dividing or have specialized functions like nerve cells with long axons.
What are cilia and flagella made up of?
They are composed of microtubules in a "9 + 2" array, similar to centrioles but with two additional microtubules in the center.
Where are cilia and flagella found?
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.
Are cilia and flagella found in the lungs?
Yes
What are short hairlike structures that move a cell?
flagella
Why are many mitochodria found in a cell that moves by means of cilia or flagella?
Moving quickly with flagella or cilia takes a lot of energy, and mitochondria provide this energy.
Name three ways in which cilia and flagella differ?
Cilia and flagella are the means of locomotion in unicellular organisms. They differ in the numbers found in cell, their sizes and their shapes.
