which of the following organism has flagella all around the call wall?
Answers
Answer:
Flagellum could also be a lash-like appendage that protrudes from the cell body of certain bacteria and eukaryotic cells termed as flagellates. A flagellate can have one or several flagella. This is a locomotory structure in bacteria. The number and site of flagella are distinctive for each genus. Flagella is often used for locomotion.
There are four sorts of flagellar arrangement:
- Monotrichous: A single polar flagella that extends from one end of the cell. This arrangement is called Monotrichous. e.g., Vibrio cholera.
- Amphitrichous: A single flagellum or many flagella extend from both ends of the cell. This arrangement is called Amphitrichous. e.g., Alcaligenes faecalis.
- Lophotrichous: Several flagella (means tuft of flagella) extend from one end or both ends of the cell. The arrangement is called Lophotrichous. e.g., Spirilla.
- Peritrichous: Multiple flagella randomly distributed over the whole bacterial cell. The arrangement is called Peritrichous. e.g., Typhoid bacilli.
Hence, the correct answer is Peritrichous.
