Bacteria can use flagella, cilia, or appendages called pili for locomotion. Flagella are long, whip-like structures that rotate to propel the bacterium forward. Cilia are short, hair-like structures that beat in coordinated waves to move the bacterium. Pili can also help bacteria move by attaching to surfaces and pulling the cell forward.
