Motile bacteria possess flagella or flagellum if just one, which they rotate much like the propeller on a ship through a complex protein 'motor' situated in the cell membrane. They can be located singularly at one end of the cell, singularly at both ends (never too sure how they get anywhere!), as groups at the ends of the cell or over the entire surface.

Is archaebacteria or eubacteria motile or non-motile?
Motile - The Moving or having the power to move spontaneously: motile spores. Archaea bacteria is motile.
What structure if present let bacteria be motile?
Most motile bacteria move by means of flagella, if present. Motile means that they are capable of motion. Flagella is the plural of flagellum.
Are bacteria growing in the semi solid agar deep motile?
Yes. If the bacteria has spread from the inoculation point, the bacteria is motile. It will look like a upside down Christmas tree.
What is Bacteroides vulgaris?
Bacteroides vulgaris is a gram-negative bacteria. It is common and is a non-endospore forming bacilli and can be either motile or non-motile.
Is eubacteria motile?
Some have flagella that allow them move in twisting motion, some can move by themselves by gliding some don't move at all!!

Motile bacteria posses what?
Flagella
Is shigella non motile bacteria?
Shigella is a non-motile, non-sporing, non-capsulated bacteria. It causes bacillary dysentery.
Are bacteria growing in the semi solid agar deep motile?
Yes. If the bacteria has spread from the inoculation point, the bacteria is motile. It will look like a upside down Christmas tree.
What are non motile bacteria?
Non-motile bacteria are ones that cannot move on their own accord. Many kinds of bacteria can move using flagella, axial filaments or can glide by producing slime. But non-motile ones can't move themselves.
What lets a bacteria be motile?
The LetE protein
What are examples of motile bacteria?
staphylococcus,shigella
Is proteus motile?
Proteus morganii is a type of bacteria that is found in the human gut. Yes, morganii is motile however, some strains are non-motile.
Is pilus a virus?
No. It is a hairlike appendage on some bacteria.
Motile bacteria move by means of?
flagella
