prokaryotic flagella action is rotational, cells move by "run and tumble"
a run is when...and tumble is when.. flagella propel prokaryote in a CCW direction..it spins in a CW direction

the prokaryotic flagellin penetrates through the...where it is anchored by the... cell wall and plasma membrane...basal boedy
just outside the cell is the...and then the... hook...filament (made of protein that is specific to that type of cell so you can stereotype them)
bacterial spirochetes have axial fibrils in a sheath called axial filaments

bacterial spirochetes move by...which allows it to... corkscrewing..burrow into cells
eukaryotic flagella and cilia do not...and their action is ina... pierce the cell membrane...beating fashion (not rotary as in prokaryotes)
cilia are...present only on... short hair like structures...eukaryotes
cilia extend from cell and provide locomotion
functions of cilia include locomotion in unicellular organisms and prevention of lung damage in resp tract by pushing out microbes/debris
motile wbcs move by use of... pseudopoda
wbcs are motile but they..by means of the... crawl...microfilaments and microtubules forming the pseudopods

bacterial cytoplasmic membrane does diffusion, active transport, energy production and motility
diffusion can either be passive or facilitated diffsuion through a channel protein
energy production involves the electron transport system for bacteria with aerobic and anaerobic respiration (mitochondria)
bacterial cytoplasmic membrane does motility and involves the bases of bacterial flagella residing within cell membrane
diffusion happens through the phospholipid bilayer
facilitated diffusion happens through a nonspecific channel protein
facilitated diffusion through a...leads to...which leads to... permease specific for one chemical...binding of substrate...shape change in channel protein
osmosis is the...through a.. diffusion of water...specific channel protein or through the phospholipid bilayer

2 major categories based on gram stain gram positive or negative depending on structure of cell wall
pili are also called...and they do not do... fimbriae...movement
pili are hair like structures protruding from the cell envelope
type 1 fimbriae aare...and are used to...which is a... fuzzy..attach to target tissues...virulence factor
virulence factors allow organism to colonize and become pathogenic
type 2 fimbriae are also called...and are present in... sex pilus...only gram negative bacteria
type 2 fimbriae are used for genetic exchange
type 2 fimbriae inject plasmin w/ extra dna to new bacterium
a capsule is a discrete mucoid layer of polysaccharides deposited outside the cell wall of bacteria
sometimes bacterial cells are embedded more...in a...called a.. randomly...polysaccharide matrix...slime layer or biofilm
capsules have several functions including mediating adherence of cells to surfaces (biofilm - dental plaque)and they protect bacterial cells from engulfment by white blood cells (phagocytosis)
many pathogenic bacteria are encapsulated in the slime layer which is a virulence factor
an example of biofilm construction in nature is the formation of...mediated by the... dental plaque...oral bacterium streptococcus mutans

fructose is...as an... fermented...energy source for bacterial growth
glucose is...into an...that binds the... polymerized..extracellular dextran polymer...bacteria to the enamel and forms a biofilm some 300-500 cells in thickness
biofilm cements the bacteria to the tooth enamel and becomes the matrix of dental plaque
the dextran slime can be...for use as a... depolymerized to glucose...carbon source
depolymeriing dextran slime results in production of..within the biofilm that... lactic acid...decalcifies the enamel and leads to dental caries or bacterial infection of the tooth
