(= Funiculus) (Fla-jell-um; plural: flagella [fla-jell-ah]): the part of the antenna beyond the second segment (pedicel) consisting of 3-11 smaller segments
(plural, flagella)- Whiplike tubular structure attached to a microbial cell responsible for motility
{i} whip-like part (Biology); runners, creepers (Botany)
Bacterial cell appendage used for motility, the organisms posessing this appendage are considered to be flagellates
An organ of motility; composed of tightly wound chains of strands containing a protein called flagellin
The long, whip like, section of the antennae, it is made up of flagellomeres
a lash-like appendage used for locomotion (e g , in sperm cells and some bacteria and protozoa)
(pl flagella) A long cellular appendage specialized for locomotion, ensheathed in an extension of plasma membrane

whip like organelle (tail) for locomotion
the long trailing branch of a vine, or a slender branch in certain mosses
A long locomotory organelle that extends from the surface of certain cells such as most spermatozoa It consists of a 9+2 arrangement of microtubules, nine outer doublets and two inner singlets
the terminal ortion of the antennæ and the epipodite of the maxilipeds
Hairlike structure that acts mainly as an organelle of movement in the cells of many living organisms. Characteristic of the protozoan group Mastigophora, flagella also occur on the sex cells of algae, fungi (see fungus), mosses, and slime molds. Flagellar motion causes water currents necessary for respiration and circulation in sponges and cnidarians. Most motile bacteria move by means of flagella. The structures and patterns of movement of flagella in prokaryotes differ from those in eukaryotes. See also cilium
Bacterial cell appendage used for motility
A lashlike appendage of a crustacean, esp
a whip used to inflict punishment (often used for pedantic humor)
Hair-like structure attached to a cell, used for locomotion in many protists and prokaryotes The prokaryotic flagellum differs from the eukaryotic flagellum in that the prokaryotic flagellum is a solid unit composed primarily of the protein flagellin, while the eukaryotic flagellum is composed of several protein strands bound by a membrane, and does not contain flagellin The eukaryotic flagellum is sometimes referred to as an undulipodium
in sperm cells and some bacteria and protozoa
