Numerous eukaryotic cells carry whip-like appendages (cilia or eukaryotic flagella) whose inner core consists of a cytoskeletal structure called the axoneme.[1] The axoneme serves as the "skeleton" of these organelles, both giving support to the structure and, in some cases, causing it to bend. Though distinctions of function and/or length may be made between cilia and flagella, the internal structure of the axoneme is common to both.

Ultra structure of an axoneme:

  • Axoneme is a "microtubule-based cytoskeleton" inside "cilia" and "flagella".
  • The primary cilia's axoneme has typically a ring of "nine outer microtubule" doublets also known as 9+0 axoneme and themoyile cilium's axoneme has "two central microtubules" with 9 outer doublets also known as 9+2 axoneme.
  • Axoneme can be identified as the support of eukaryotic cells and acts as the skeleton of these organelles.
  • The "internal structure of axoneme" is equal to both cilia and flagella.
