∙ 13y agoBacteria have small tentacles called flagellum that move them. {Some without these tentacles are moved by the rushing of fluids passing by them}.
In Eukaryotes, cilia perform the same function, Motility.
There is something called a Flagella: a flagella is found at the back of bacteria and is basically a tail with which they can move around and navigate their way around.

∙ 15y agobacteria and most prokaryotic organisms move by the use of flagella bacteria and most prokaryotic organisms move by the use of flagella (s. flagellum), thread like locomotor appendages extending outward from the plasma membrane and cell wall. Bacterial flagella are selender, rigid, about 20nm across and up to 15 to 20 micrometer long. Flagella are so thin they can not be observed directly with a bright field microscope, bust must be stained with a special techinques designed to increase their thickness.

What bacteria is capable of movement?
spirochetes
Hairlike structure with the capacity of movement?
the hairlike structure that has the capacity for movement in bacteria is filia
Does soap use bacteria when making?
No soap does not use bacteria in its making. One of the objectives of soap using is to get rid of bacteria.
What info can you observe on a wet mount that cannot be seen on a stained preparation?
The movement of a bacteria can be seen on a wet mount. This movement can not be seen in a stained preparation.
What is flagellar motion?
the movement of bacteria which posses flagella. Flagellar motion is considered to be true motility.
Can non motile bacteria move?
Yes, the microbes will exhibit either brownian movement or true motility.
Bacteria capable of movement?
spirochetes
What bacteria is capable of movement?
spirochetes
Does freezing kill pneumonia bacteria?
Freezing does kill the bacteria because it freezes the cell movement. Bacteria has to maintain in movement to stay alive. Also when it freezes, it shatters easily. This kills the bacteria almost immediately.
What aids bacteria in movement?
Bacteria may have one of two external structures for powered movement: flagella or cilia. Also bacteria are often capable of "flowing" to move by using internal mechanisms.
Bacteria capable of movement is what type of pathogen?
Bacilli
Hairlike structure with the capacity of movement?
the hairlike structure that has the capacity for movement in bacteria is filia
How does bacteria control?
Cooling can control the spread and growth of bacteria. As the temperature lowers, the movement and division of bacteria slows and eventually, as the temperature falls enough, ceases.
What is cdifficile?
C.Difficle (Clostridium difficile) is a bacteria. C.difficile can be part of the normal bacteria in the large intestine and is one of the many bacteria that can be found in stool (a bowel movement).
What are the functions of flagella in bacteria?
Flagella on any cell (including bacteria) move it towards some goal.
What is Spiral-shaped bacteria that have flexible walls and are capable of movement?
spirochetesspirochetes
How cooling controls bacteria?
Cooling can control the spread and growth of bacteria. As the temperature lowers, the movement and division of bacteria slows and eventually, as the temperature falls enough, ceases.
