Pili are thin, hair-like projections on the surface of organisms such as bacteria. The pyelonephritis-associated pili, or PAP, of uropathogenic E. coli (which is the major cause of urinary tract infections) are homologous to type I pili, which is composed of pilin subunits and binds to mannose residues on host cell surfaces. PAP, however, are more thin and flexible and bind to the human receptor GBO4.
Yes Pili Is An Prokaryotic Cell
An arrector pili is any of a group of small muscles attached to hair follicles in mammals, the contraction of which causes the hairs to stand on end.
The Pili sometimes called as sex pili is an analogy to sexual reproduction because they allow for the exchange of genes via the formation of mating pairs.

There are two types of pili found on some bacteria. Sex pili are used by bacteria to transfer plasmids during conjugation. Common pili (fimbrae) are used to stick to surfaces.
The Pili sometimes called as sex pili is an analogy to sexual reproduction because they allow for the exchange of genes via the formation of mating pairs.
A "Pilus" is the Latin for a hair, so following the Latin rules for plurals, the plural is "pili".
