An animal cell typically does not possess a flagellum, as flagella are primarily found in certain microorganisms like sperm cells and some protists. In the case of sperm cells, the flagellum functions as a tail that propels the cell through fluid, enabling it to swim toward an egg for fertilization. The movement is powered by the coordinated beating of the flagellum, which is anchored to the cell body by a structure called the basal body. In summary, while flagella are not common in most animal cells, they play a crucial role in the locomotion of specific cell types like sperm.
What else can I help you with?
What organelles play an important role in the animal cell motility?
Flagellum
Which part of a euglena is also found in an animal cell?
The flagellum found in a euglena is also found in some animal cells. The flagellum helps with movement by propelling the cell through its environment.
Do the cell of Euglena have an anterior or posterior flagellum?
The cell of Euglena has an anterior flagellum.
What type of organism has a cell membrane flagellum and a cell wall?
A bacterium typically has a cell membrane, flagellum for movement, and a cell wall for structure and protection.
Rotating filament present in some bacteria that pushes the cell forward?
Flagellum
Is flagellum in plant or animal cell?
It is the animal cell.
Is flagellum found in plant or animal ceLLS?
NO i think in only animal. because flagellum and cilia moves the cell, but plants can't move.
What organelles play an important role in the animal cell motility?
Flagellum
Which part of a euglena is also found in an animal cell?
The flagellum found in a euglena is also found in some animal cells. The flagellum helps with movement by propelling the cell through its environment.
A long hair like structure use for movement?
In animal cells: cilia (many cilia per cell) In bacterial cells: flagella (only one per cell)
Do the cell of Euglena have an anterior or posterior flagellum?
The cell of Euglena has an anterior flagellum.
Is Golgi body found in both plant and animal cells?
Yes it is - the differences between plant and animal cells are essentially that plant cells have a cell wall and chloroplast (which animal cells do not have) and animal cells have centrioles (which help to make up the cytoskeleton of the cell, and which plant cells do not have). You can say in general that plant cells do not have flagellum, where animal cells do, but there are flagellum on plant reproductive cells. So just say that somatic (non-reproductive cells) plant cells do not have flagellum.
Is the flagellum found in plant or animal cells?
Flagellum can be found in some prokaryote and eukaryote cells but not in plant cells. Plant cells have cell walls to provide rigidness and that would contrast with flagellum, which purpose is to allow flexibility and movement.
What is flagelium?
The term "flagelium" appears to be a misspelling or a combination of "flagellum," which is a tail-like structure on a cell used for movement, and "flagellum," an intestinal parasite. Can you please provide more context or clarification for a more accurate response?
Does a bone cell have a flagellum?
no
What type of organism has a cell membrane flagellum and a cell wall?
A bacterium typically has a cell membrane, flagellum for movement, and a cell wall for structure and protection.
Is a flagellum in a human cell?
yes
