Bacteria might need to move around in their environment, so they have structures called ______ which resemble tails?
flagella
What else can I help you with?
What structures let bacteria be motile?
Flagella and cilia because this is how prokaryotes move around.
Does bacteria live in a moist environment?
Yes, many bacteria thrive in moist environments because water is essential for their growth and survival. Moisture helps bacteria to move, reproduce, and obtain nutrients from their surroundings. Dry environments can hinder bacterial survival by dehydrating and damaging their cell structures.
Can bacteria have the ability to move around?
Yes bacteria do move from place to placeyes bacteria move from place to places when people share from a straw, blood getting into someone else body, when you sneeze or cough on someone and not washing your hands after using the bathroom and before eating
How does bacteria get around?
They can wiggle and squirm around like worms, make use of liquid to move from one point to another; most have flagella around their cell walls which help them move around. The flagella can be very short and populous all around the outside of their "skin," or one big "tail" that acts as a rudder to steer them around.
Identify the structure that cause bacteria to move aside from flagella?
Pili or fimbriae are hair-like structures on the surface of bacteria that can help with adherence to surfaces or other cells. Some bacteria can also move using a gliding mechanism, which does not involve flagella but rather a smooth movement across a surface. Additionally, some bacteria can move using structures called axial filaments or periplasmic flagella.
Which structures can be found floating around in bacteria?
chromatin, ribosomes, chloroplast
What structures let bacteria be motile?
Flagella and cilia because this is how prokaryotes move around.
What allows the bacterium to move around its environment?
Motile bacteria generally have flagella.
What does a cuttlefish resemble?
The cuttlefish is often known as masters of camouflage. They can change their color and shape to resemble anything in the environment around them and use this to become seemingly invisible. This helps them to catch their prey. In their natural form they kind of resemble a squid except for the fact that their tentacles grow out of their head.
How do salmon travel?
Salmonella bacteria move around using cilia or flagella. Bacteria will move around its environment in most cases to find food for its survival. Some bacteria are good for our bodies while others are harmful.
What is the smallest structures visible with the light microscope are the?
The smallest structures visible with a light microscope are typically around 200 nanometers in size. This includes some organelles like mitochondria and small bacteria. Anything smaller would require an electron microscope for visualization.

Why might scientists believe that life evolved as bacteria around deep sea vents?
Perfect environment: dark, wet, warm to hot.
Do bacteria make their own food?
Yes and no. Some bacteria are autotrophs (make their own food with their environment around them and the sun's energy) and some are heterotrophs (can't make their own food so they eat autotrophs and other heterotrophs).
