A pawl is a tiny hinged arm, with its free end resting against a serrated surface. It can slide over the surface in one direction, but will catch on the serrations when going in the other direction. It's what makes it possible for a bike to coast.
The freehub pawl in a bicycle's drivetrain system allows the cassette to engage and disengage from the wheel hub, enabling the rider to coast without pedaling.
It allows the chain to transfer power from the pedals to the rear (drive) wheel.
A ratchet wheel engager is called a PAWL.
Sprocket and chain and what?
The pawl and ratchet works by the use of a wheel with teeth on it and a brace that stops the wheel from turning in one direction. Then the wheel can be turned and the reversed to tighten or loosed bolts without removing the wrench from the bolt.
A pawl and ratchet is used for example in a clock spring winding barrel. A toothed wheel with barbed triangular teeth are cut into the circumference of a metal disc attached to the axle of the spring barrel. This is the ratchet. The pawl is a pivoting teardrop shaped piece of metal mounted on the clock plate adjacent to ratchet. The pawl drops into the gap between the teeth of the ratchet as the clock key turns the spring barrel. The pawl clicks over the teeth until the key turning pressure is removed. The pawl then drops into the last notch in the toothed wheel and stops the spring unwinding.
To remove the rear sprocket from a bicycle wheel, you will need a chain whip tool and a cassette lockring tool. First, remove the wheel from the bike. Then, use the chain whip tool to hold the sprocket in place while using the cassette lockring tool to unscrew the lockring that holds the sprocket in place. Once the lockring is removed, the sprocket can be taken off the wheel.
A sprocket is a toothed wheel whose teeth engage the links of a chain.
To replace the sprocket bushings on a Gomoto GT125, first, remove the rear wheel by loosening the axle nut and sliding the wheel off the axle. Next, take off the sprocket by unscrewing the bolts that hold it in place. Remove the old bushings from the sprocket and install the new ones, ensuring they fit snugly. Finally, reattach the sprocket to the wheel, secure the bolts, and reinstall the wheel onto the bike.

Yes, or a chain, or a cable. And the "wheel" may have teeth - a sprocket wheel.
first. take the left side rear wheel off. then remove the 4 bolts that hold the sprocket to the sprocket holder. then remove sprocket
