What are parasitic flagellates?

Answer 1

of Flagellum

Answer 2

Flagellates, unicellular protists, use their flagella to move around. They may or may not produce their own food. A flagellate is both plant and animal. They move by using a hair-like structure called flagella.

Answer 3

Flagella are hairlike structures that some bacteria use for locomotion. Depending on their arrangement patterns, specific names have been applied. Some bacteria have one single flagellum (singular) on one end of the cell, they are said to be monotrichous. Some bacteria have flagella on both ends of the cell. These are said to be lophotrichous. Some bacteria have flagella surrounding the cell. These have the flagella in a peritrichous pattern.

Simply put, a flagellum is a hairlike structure that grows out of a cell.

Answer 4

The name ciliates comes from an old Latin word, meaning "eye lash." This name is given because all or some part of these cells are covered with hair-like things called cilia. The following are details of a ciliate: # unicellular # eukaryotic # have cilia, tiny hair-like organelles # Kingdom Protist

Answer 5

Parasites are what feed on your nutrients, as you should know.

Flagellum is almost tail-like structure in a prokaryote.

Parasitic Flagellates, therefore are parasites with flagellum

Answer 6

Parasitic flagellates are single-celled organisms that have flagella for movement and rely on a host organism to survive and reproduce. These flagellates can cause diseases in their host organisms, such as sleeping sickness, giardiasis, and leishmaniasis. Proper hygiene and avoiding contaminated water sources can help prevent infections caused by parasitic flagellates.

Answer 7

Flagella doesn't MEAN anything, it is more of a what. It is a long tail like body part, that helps propel organisms through the water.

Answer 8

A long, threadlike appendage, especially a whiplike extension of certain cells or unicellular organisms that functions as an organ of locomotion.

Answer 9

Flagella are whip-like structures that one-celled organisms can use for locomotion.
