So that they can take their food from the water.

How does flagella work in protoza?
Flagella propel protozoa through water. Sperm also have the same way of moving.
What cellular structure are associated with moving of cells?
cilia and flagella
Does time exist inside solids?
Yes, atoms inside solids are still moving through time. Even a solid at absolute zero is still moving through time (though not space).
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.
How do cells move within the fluid matrix?
with moving mechanistic like cilia and flagella
Flagella are whip-like projections that are used in?
they help in moving the cell and changing its direction
What is flagella like?
You can compare flagellum to a tail or to a leg or arm. This is because it is the cells ways of moving around.
Why did you use a young culture for flagella stain?
Young cultures are typically used for a flagella stain because they are healthier and livelier. This helps the flagella get seen easier since the bacteria are continuously moving.
Why is water movement through sponge body important for feeding?
Sponges are animals and are heterotrophs- they need to take in nutrients and food for energy. The nutrients are carried by the water into the sponge.
What two movement organelles are missing in a cheek cell?
I think they're called flagella and cilia. The flagella work like propellers and the cilia are little moving hairs that let a cell crawl.
How do sea sponges hunt?
They do not hunt. They filter feed. Since they have no organs they cannot digest, and they cannot move, so they would pull in nutrients through the water (AKA filter feeding) The cells with flagella keep water moving through the sponge.
What is taxis in flagella?
Taxis is the directional movement of the flagella("moving tail"). So... the direction of movement by the prokaryotic cell is described in the taxis. Example: positive phototaxis- positive(toward) photo(light)taxis(movement).
