Cilia and Flagella By Morgan Brady
2
Evolution Centrioles produce basal bodies Basal body in the cytoplasm
Ex: the development of sperm cells Basal body in the cytoplasm Cilia and Flagella grow Remains attached to it Production is continued
3
Function Single-celled organisms Multi-celled organisms Locomotion
Ex: sperms swimming Multi-celled organisms Move cells Transports fluid or materials past cells Ex: respiratory tract in humans Generates water currents to carry food
4

Structure Cilia: great numbers Flagella: solitary Hair- like
Contain cytoplasm Enclosed by the plasma membrane 9+2 arrangement
