Answers
In 1971, Alder and Pamphilis separated the basal body of a flagellum of B. subtilis and E. coli and examined its fine composition and alignment of rings. The basal body combines the flagellum to the plasma membrane and the cell wall. It comprises a small central rod administered into a sequence of rings.
In Gram-negative bacteria two pairs of rings, that is, the distal ring and the proximal ring are attached with a central rod. There are two pairs of rings, that is, four rings are P or peptidoglycan ring, L or lipopolysaccharide ring, M or membrane ring, and S or super membrane ring.
The basal body of a flagellum is composed of some rings embedded in a system in cells.
Flagellums are supposed to locomote and is noticed to be sensitive to some chemicals and also the external environment of the cells.
The L and the S rings present in the basal body of a flagellum are considered to be rod and four.
