What else can I help you with?
Some bacteria has flagella that help them do what?
Flagella help bacteria to move and navigate through their environment. They allow bacteria to swim towards nutrients or away from harmful substances. Flagella also help bacteria to colonize surfaces and form biofilms.
What structures if present allow bacteria to move?
A bacteria moves using a structure called the flagellum, which resembles a tail.
What is the motile cocci?
Cocci are spherical bacteria. As such, they do not have flagella, or tails that allow other types of bacteria to move on their own. Most cocci are not capable of locomotion.
Do anaerobic bacteria have flagella?
Some methanogenic bacteria (which are anaerobic) do have flagella. You can read more in the related link
How bacteria are classified on the bases of flagella?
Bacteria can be classified based on the number and arrangement of flagella. Monotrichous bacteria have a single flagellum, amphitrichous bacteria have a flagellum at each end, lophotrichous bacteria have multiple flagella at one or both ends, and peritrichous bacteria have flagella distributed all over the cell surface.

A bacteria moves using a structure called the flagellum, which resembles a tail.
What structure if present let bacteria be motile?
Most motile bacteria move by means of flagella, if present. Motile means that they are capable of motion. Flagella is the plural of flagellum.

What are the functions of flagella in bacteria?
Flagella on any cell (including bacteria) move it towards some goal.
Do most bacteria have flagella?
A penicillum does not have flagella, it is a drug, or antibiotic
Motile bacteria posses what?
Flagella
What is the role of the flagella in a bacteria cell?
The role of a flagella in a bacterial cell is motility. Through the back and forth movements of the flagella bacteria can propel themselves through their environment. The flagella also help bacteria undergo chemotaxis, the ability to move away from some stimuli and move towards others.
What is the whip-like appendage called on some bacteria?
Some bacteria have a whip-like tail called aflagellum. This structure is essential for locomotion, or motility.
What structures allow for cell movement?
Cilia and flagella
