Cilia are tiny hairs protruding from cells that wave mucus and remove toxins from the respiratory tract. Cigarette smoke damages cilia, preventing mucus clearance and causing smoker's cough. Flagella are tails powered by molecular motors that propel some prokaryotes by alternating between forward movement and tumbling, while others have a single rotating flagellum for locomotion. Chemotaxis is cellular movement toward or away from chemicals, with positive chemotaxis referring to movement toward a liked chemical.

flagella structure and function
flagella structure and functionRahman Ali
油
Flagella are whip-like structures that allow cells to move. They are found in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. While all three types are used for locomotion, their structures differ. Flagella consist of three main parts - the filament, hook, and basal body. The filament forms the outer region and is composed of flagellin proteins arranged in helical chains. The filament attaches to the hook, while the basal body anchors the flagellum and consists of rings and rods that insert into the cell. Bacteria can have flagella in different arrangements including single, tufts, both ends, or all over the cell surface.Flagella

Flagella are whip-like appendages that protrude from the cell body of prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Their main function is locomotion, but they also serve as sensory organelles. Bacteria use flagella for motility and movement. They can move towards or away from chemicals, light, and other stimuli in processes called chemotaxis and phototaxis. Bacterial flagella vary in their arrangement on cells and are classified as atrichous, monotrichous, lophotrichous, amphitrichous, or peritrichous. Each type is exemplified by certain bacterial species. The structure of prokaryotic flagella consists of a basal body, hook,Cilia and flagella

Cilia and flagella are organelles found in eukaryotic cells that are used for cellular transportation. Cilia are short and numerous, while flagella are longer and fewer in number. Both are composed of microtubules in a 9+2 pattern and use dynein arms powered by ATP to bend back and forth, propelling the cell. Cilia movement is coordinated to move cells in waves, while flagella rotation provides smoother movement. Defects can impact functions like respiration and kidney function.Flagella

Flagella are thin, thread-like appendages that protrude from bacterial cells and enable locomotion. They vary in number, arrangement, and length depending on the bacterial species. A flagellum is composed of three main parts - a long, helical filament; a basal body that anchors the flagellum and acts as a motor; and a short, curved hook that connects the filament to the basal body. Flagella rotate like propellers via a motor system that uses proton gradients to drive the rotation of the basal body and propel the bacterium forward.Centrioles and basal bodies

The document discusses centrioles and basal bodies. It states that centrioles are cylindrical structures found in the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells that help form the mitotic spindle during cell division. When located beneath the cell membrane, centrioles are called basal bodies and anchor flagella or cilia. The document describes the structure of centrioles and basal bodies including their nine microtubule triplets arranged in a pinwheel shape and other components like linkers and rootlets. Their functions include organizing microtubules and forming cilia, flagella, and the mitotic spindle to help in cell division.Activity 2 - Determination of Bacterial Motility

This document describes experiments to determine the motility of various microorganisms. Wet mount and hanging drop techniques were used to observe motility. Brownian motion, exhibited by Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is random movement caused by water molecule bombardment, while true motility involves self-propulsion using flagella or cilia. Proteus vulgaris showed motility in culture, while Staphylococcus aureus, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, and Micrococcus luteus were non-motile. The experiments allowed identification of motile versus non-motile microbes and differentiation of Brownian motion from true self-propelled motility.Cilia

Bacteria use various appendages and structures for motility and attachment. Flagella are thin filaments that propel many bacteria through liquids and semi-solid surfaces. They are composed of flagellin protein and have a basal body, hook, and long filament. Fimbriae and pili are short hair-like structures involved in attachment to surfaces and conjugation between bacterial cells to transfer DNA. Capsules are outer layers of polysaccharides or other materials that protect bacteria from phagocytosis and promote virulence. These structures help bacteria move, attach, exchange genes, and evade the immune system.Centrosomes in checkpoint responses
Centrosomes in checkpoint responsesAli Hatami

Centrosomes play roles in regulating the cell cycle checkpoint responses to DNA damage. Centrosomes contain centrioles and help regulate the G2/M transition under normal conditions through proteins like Cdc25, Aurora-A, and Chk1. In response to DNA damage, the Chk1 protein is activated and prevents phosphorylation of Cdc25, inhibiting progression through G2/M. Centrosome amplification can occur in response to DNA damage and impaired DNA repair, leading to chromosomal instability and potential tumorigenesis. Mechanisms of centrosome amplification include overreplication within a cell cycle or failures in cell division coupled with DNA and centrosome overreplication.Centrioles[1]

The centrosome nucleates and organizes microtubules to conduct important cellular processes like cell polarity, movement, and cell division. Centrosome dysfunction is linked to chromosome instability and aneuploidy, hallmarks of cancer. Improper chromosome separation due to centrosome errors can cause DNA damage and genomic rearrangements that encourage tumor growth, immune evasion, and survival. The centrosome is a potential target for anti-cancer therapies that manipulate regulatory networks or checkpoints controlling its function.Cilia and flagella

There are several forms of fish locomotion. The most common is carangiform locomotion, where fish sweep their caudal fin from side to side to move forward. Angulliform locomotion is used by fish with eel-like bodies, who send waves along their body length to push against water and propel themselves. Some stiff-bodied fish use ostraciform locomotion, wiggling their fins slowly. A few fish use labriform locomotion, paddling with pectoral fins. Ballistiform locomotion involves sending waves along fins like the anal fin, allowing knifefish to swim backward by reversing wave direction.Cytoskeleton / fixed orthodontics courses

1. Electric charge can be positive or negative, and like charges repel while opposite charges attract. The strength of this electrostatic force depends on the magnitude of the charges and the distance between them, similar to the formula for gravitational force.
2. At the nuclear scale, the strong nuclear force is required to overcome the repulsion between positively charged protons and hold the nucleus together. This force only operates at very short ranges of 10-15 meters or less.
3. The photoelectric effect provided evidence that light behaves as particles called photons, with a frequency-dependent energy described by Planck's constant. Each material has a minimum photon energy threshold required to eject electrons from its surface.More Related Content

Plants are autotrophs that perform photosynthesis to convert sunlight, water and carbon dioxide into glucose and oxygen. Photosynthesis has two stages - the light reactions where sunlight is absorbed to make ATP and NADPH, and the Calvin cycle where carbon is fixed into glucose using the ATP and NADPH produced. Glucose is used by plants and is the starting material for cellular respiration in animals and fungi to release energy, with oxygen and carbon dioxide exchanged between photosynthesis and respiration.Cell membrane
Cell membraneGreg Scrivin
油
The cell membrane, also known as the phospholipid bilayer, separates the interior of the cell from its surroundings and controls the movement of substances in and out. It is composed of phospholipids, which have a hydrophilic phosphate head and hydrophobic fatty acid tails. The phospholipids spontaneously form a bilayer with the heads facing out and tails shielded inside. This structure allows for selective transport of molecules. Transport can occur passively via simple diffusion, facilitated diffusion through transport proteins, or actively against the concentration gradient using energy from ATP. Active transport is required for ions like sodium and potassium. Larger substances use endocytosis to enter and exocytosis to exit the cell enclosed in vesicles.7.3 cell transport
7.3 cell transportGreg Scrivin
油
This document discusses different types of cell transport mechanisms, including passive transport (diffusion and facilitated diffusion) and active transport. Passive transport involves the diffusion of substances across the cell membrane down their concentration gradient without cellular energy expenditure. Active transport requires cellular energy and transports substances against their concentration gradient using transmembrane protein pumps and channels. Osmosis, a type of facilitated diffusion, allows for the diffusion of water across the cell membrane through water channel proteins. The document provides examples and diagrams to explain these transport mechanisms.Movement in and out of cells

Active transport is the movement of molecules against a concentration gradient, requiring energy. Key examples discussed include gas exchange in the lungs, nutrient absorption in the small intestine and placenta, and ion regulation in cells.Ess Chapter 3 Rocks

Rocks are composed of minerals and come in three main types: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Igneous rocks form from solidified magma or lava. Sedimentary rocks form from compressed sediment. Metamorphic rocks form from changes to existing rocks by heat, pressure, and chemical reactions. These three rock types are continuously transforming into one another through geological processes in the rock cycle.Six kingdoms

Biological classification and taxonomy began with Aristotle's system of grouping organisms by physical similarities like size and habitat. Carl Linnaeus later established binomial nomenclature using genus and species names written in Latin. Modern evolutionary classification is based on evolutionary relationships and descent rather than just physical traits. Cladograms illustrate how different lineages evolved from common ancestors over time. Organisms are classified into domains, kingdoms, phyla and other taxonomic ranks based on shared derived characteristics.Cell wall

The plant cell wall provides mechanical support and protection for the plant cell. It is composed principally of the polysaccharide cellulose. Adjacent plant cells are held together by a thin middle lamella composed of pectic substances that acts as glue. The cells are also interconnected by plasmodesmata, which are fine strands of cytoplasm that pass through pores in the cell walls and middle lamella, forming continuous cytoplasmic bridges between plant cells.Vacuoles and Lysosomes
Vacuoles and LysosomesGreg Scrivin

Vacuoles and vesicles function to move material around plant and animal cells through membrane-bound sacs. Plant cell vacuoles are large central structures that contain cell sap and help regulate water flow via osmosis. They aid in food and water storage. Animal cells contain smaller vacuoles and vesicles, as well as lysosomes, which are vesicles containing digestive enzymes that function as the cell's "cleanup crew" and digest macromolecules and old organelles. Lysosomes fuse with food vacuoles to digest polymers into monomers for use as cell nutrients. They are also involved in programmed cell death processes.Mitochondria
MitochondriaGreg Scrivin

Mitochondria are organelles found in most eukaryotic cells that are known as the "powerhouses" of the cell. They have an outer and inner membrane and are the site of aerobic respiration where glucose and oxygen are used to generate ATP through cellular respiration. Mitochondria contain their own DNA and ribosomes and have a folded inner membrane with cristae that increases surface area for enzymes involved in ATP synthesis. They transform energy from food sources into ATP that cells can use for work.Nucleus

The nucleus is the control center of the cell, bounded by a double nuclear membrane. It contains DNA in the form of chromatin or condensed chromosomes, as well as the nucleolus where ribosomal RNA is produced. The nucleolus builds ribosomal subunits which exit through nuclear pores into the cytoplasm to form functional ribosomes for protein production. Ribosomes are structures composed of rRNA and proteins that exist freely in the cytoplasm or bound to the endoplasmic reticulum, where they synthesize proteins. The endoplasmic reticulum processes proteins and manufactures membranes throughout the cell. It includes rough ER where bound ribosomes synthesize proteins for export, and smooth ER which performs metabolic functions and membrane production. The Golgi apparatus finishesChloroplast
ChloroplastGreg Scrivin
油
Chloroplasts are organelles found in plant cells that contain chlorophyll, which allows them to carry out photosynthesis. Chloroplasts have an inner and outer membrane, as well as internal structures called thylakoids that are stacked to form grana. Within the chloroplast is the stroma, which contains enzymes and DNA, allowing the chloroplast to divide itself. Chloroplasts are able to convert sunlight into chemical energy through photosynthesis.Chloroplasts
ChloroplastsGreg Scrivin
油
Chloroplasts are organelles found only in plant cells that contain chlorophyll, which is essential for photosynthesis. Chloroplasts have a double outer membrane and inner membranes that are folded into stacks called grana, with a fluid interior called the stroma. Chloroplasts contain their own DNA and ribosomes and are the site where photosynthesis takes place to produce food for the plant.Cell history and structure

The document outlines the historical development of cell theory, highlighting key figures like Zacharias Janssen, Robert Hooke, Anton van Leeuwenhoek, Matthias Schleiden, Theodore Schwann, and Rudolf Virchow. It describes the invention and use of the microscope, the discovery of cells, and the principles of cell theory, stating that all living things are composed of cells, which are the basic units of life that come from pre-existing cells. Additionally, it mentions essential cellular functions such as control, food acquisition, waste disposal, energy usage, transport, and reproduction.Motion graphs practice

The document discusses position-time graphs and velocity-time graphs. It explains that a flat line on a position graph represents an object that is stopped, a sloping line represents constant speed, and a curved line represents changing speed or acceleration. It provides similar explanations for velocity graphs. The document asks questions about interpreting and constructing graphs, determining speed and velocity from graphs, and calculating displacement from a velocity graph.Introduction to Earth Science
Introduction to Earth ScienceGreg Scrivin
油
1) Earth science studies Earth and its place in the universe, including geology, oceanography, meteorology, and astronomy. It views Earth as an interconnected system.
2) The formation of Earth is explained by the nebular hypothesis where the solar system condensed from a giant cloud of gas and dust. As Earth formed, radioactive decay caused heating and differentiation into layers.
3) Science uses observation, experimentation and hypotheses to build theories that describe patterns in nature. Theories must withstand examination and modification.Ad

Chaulukya or Solanki was one of the Rajputs born from Agnikul. In the Vadnagar inscription, the origin of this dynasty is told from Brahma's Chauluk or Kamandalu. They ruled in Gujarat from the latter half of the tenth century to the beginning of the thirteenth century. Their capital was in Anahilwad. It is not certain whether it had any relation with the Chalukya dynasty of the south or not. It is worth mentioning that the name of the dynasty of the south was 'Chaluky' while the dynasty of Gujarat has been called 'Chaulukya'. The rulers of this dynasty were the supporters and patrons of Jainism.Paper 107 | From Watchdog to Lapdog: Ishiguros Fiction and the Rise of Godi...

Sustainable Innovation with Immersive LearningLeonel Morgado
油
Prof. Leonel and Prof. Dennis approached educational uses, practices, and strategies of using immersion as a lens to interpret, design, and planning educational activities in a sustainable way. Rather than one-off gimmicks, the intent is to enable instructors (and institutions) to be able to include them in their regular activities, including the ability to evaluate and redesign them.
Immersion as a phenomenon enables interpreting pedagogical activities in a learning-agnostic way: you take a stance on the learning theory to follow, and leverage immersion to envision and guide your practice.How to Manage Upselling of Subscriptions in Odoo 18

Flagella
- 1. Cell Movement Flagella and Cilia Cilia are tiny hairs coming from the cell, made of microtubules. They can waft mucus past the cell, carrying away dust and toxins. Cilia Mucus
- 2. Ciliated cells lining the breathing passages. Cigarette smoke burns the cilia away, so the mucus does not get moved up, leading to smokers cough
- 3. Flagella are tails powered by tiny molecular motors
- 4. Flagella are grouped in some prokaryotes, letting them move forward then do a tumble turn
- 5. others only have 1 flagellum that they use to move around, it can rotate both ways or just one way
- 6. Chemotaxis This means movement towards or away from a chemical
- 7. Positive Chemotaxis The cell will move towards the chemical it likes
