eukaryotic flagella differ from bacterial flagella because only eukaryotic flagella
multiple choice
contain microtubules
are long, whiplike structures
facilitate phototaxis
are used for cell motility
facilitate chemotaxis
Eukaryotic flagella are composed of microtubules arranged in a 9 + 2 pattern. Bacterial flagella are made of the protein flagellin and lack microtubules. Both types can be long and whip - like and are used for cell motility. Phototaxis and chemotaxis can be facilitated by both types of flagella in different organisms.
