Is flagella a virus?
Flagella is not a virus. It is a tail-like protrusion of a cell body. A sperm cell has a flagella which is integral to itd locomotion.
What does Flagella in a cell do?
The flagella is a whip-like organelle that helps the cell move.
Whip like structure on a cell?
flagella
What do flagella enable prokatyotic cell to do?
Flagella are like little rudders, they allow them to move around.
Tail like projections that propel the cell?
Flagella
In animal-like protists the short threadlike structures that extend from the cell membrane are called what?
it is either cilia or flagella
Do animals cells have flagella?
Yes, flagella is like a tail at the end of the cell that helps the cell move.
Where can flagella be found?
Flagellum, (plural flagella) is mainly found on sperm, its the tail.
How are flagella similar to cilia in structure and function?
They are used for cell movement.
True or false cilia and flagella are cell surface structures that are adapted for respiration?
No, It is not used for respiration instead it is used for the movement or locomotion of body.
Flagella are longer and more numerous than cillia?
Flagella are longer than cilia but, not as numerous as cilia. Cilia usually surround the surface of a cell. Flagella are usually found only once (eg. sperm)
Can flagella be pathogenic?
Flagella is a part of the cell which allows the cell to move. Bacteria which have flagella are not always pathogenic. Some, like Heliobacter pylori have a flagella and cause stomach ulcers in some patients. Thus, a flagella is not an indication of pathogenicity.
