∙ 14y agoBacterial cells can move by many ways, including "swimming" through water via the bacterial flagellum (although at the scale of a bacterial cell, the intermolecular forces between water molecules become so great that swimming would be more like drilling through sand or very thick mud). The bacterial flagellum has achieved some fame through the Intelligent Design movement as the poster boy ofirreducible complexity. However, science has now answered how the bacterial flagellum probably evolved (scientists have identified a structure very simple to the bacterial flagellum that injects poison into other cells) and Michael Behe's "theory" irreducible complexity is thoroughly debunked.

∙ 14y agoSome bacteria but not all can move. They can only propell themselves through a liquid using their flagella, considered to be like a motorised tail it spins at several thousand rpm but can control the movement of the bacteria very precisely.

What happens first when a phage infects a bacterial cell and is going to enter a lysogenic cycle?
it becomes a part of the bacterial DNA and it can be replicated into the daughter cells. this cycle doesn't harm the bacterial cell but it can change into the lysis cycle and kill the host cell
Which part of the cell has pores that control the movement of chemicals in?
I believe it is the Cell Membrane.
Circular DNA molecule that is not part of the chromosome in bacterial cells?
Those circular DNA molecules are called Plasmids.widely used in Recombinent DNA Technology
What is an example of cyclosis?
Cyclosis refers to the circulation of the cytoplasm within living cells. Streaming aids in the transportation of substances around the cell and facilitates the exchange of materials between and within cells.
What do bacterial plant and animal cells all have in common?
All of these are living cells. They all have DNA as genetic material, cytoplasm and a cell membrane. They vary in size, vary in shape and are measured in micrometers. They all form an important part of our ecosystems.
What part of bacterial cells allow them to take on particular shape?
the nuclus
What is the large vesicle that aids in digestion within plant cells?
The part in the plant cell that aids the plant in digestion is the lysosome.
How could one can enumerate the number of bacterial cells on the uncovered part of human body such as palm?
by sucking that part
What parts of the body does AIDS effect?
AIDS doesnt affect a specific part of the body. AIDS is a diagnosis given to an HIV+ person who exhibits qualifying clinical criteria. HIV is the virus that causes AIDS and attacks cells associated with immune function, broadly speaking, white blood cells.
What structure is not found in bacterial cells?
One structure you would not find in a bacterial cell is a mitochondrion. One bacterial disease that is transmitted by contaminated drinking water is cholera.
What cell does Aids attack?
AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) does not infect any cells of the body. AIDS is a diagnosis given to HIV+ patients when the exhibit certain clinical criteria. HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus) is the virus that causes AIDS. HIV attacks the part of the body that fights disease, the cells associate with immune function. Over time, as HIV infection progresses, an HIV+ person is less able to fight disease.
What is flagellum in a cell?
Flagellum are organelles resembling hairlike structures. They enable movement of the cells in which they are a part of.

What do human cells have in common with bacteria cells?
Humans are related to bacteria in that they are both a part of the Earth. They interact with one another, and while some bacteria is actually helpful to humans, many kinds of bacteria can be harmful.
