Do anaerobic bacteria have flagella?
Some methanogenic bacteria (which are anaerobic) do have flagella. You can read more in the related link
Why does a bacteria have a flagella?
Some bacteria have flagella, some only have one flagellum, and some just float around like a leaf in a river
What are the functions of flagella in bacteria?
Flagella on any cell (including bacteria) move it towards some goal.
Some bacteria has flagella that help them do what?
Flagella help bacteria to move and navigate through their environment. They allow bacteria to swim towards nutrients or away from harmful substances. Flagella also help bacteria to colonize surfaces and form biofilms.
Is a flagella cell in a plant cell?
No, flagella are found in some types of cells such as bacteria, sperm cells, and some single-celled organisms. Plant cells do not typically have flagella.
What term best describes the function of the flagella in bacteria?
Motion.

What do some bacteria use to move?
Flagella
What is the whip-like appendage called on some bacteria?
Some bacteria have a whip-like tail called aflagellum. This structure is essential for locomotion, or motility.
Do all bacteria have flagellum?
No. Only some bacteria have a flagellum.

What is the role of the flagella in a bacteria cell?
The role of a flagella in a bacterial cell is motility. Through the back and forth movements of the flagella bacteria can propel themselves through their environment. The flagella also help bacteria undergo chemotaxis, the ability to move away from some stimuli and move towards others.
What bacteria shapes are locomotion?
Some bacteria have flagella, which appearance resembles a long thin tail. They use this to move around. Others "squirm" and glide.
Can flagella be pathogenic?
Flagella themselves are not pathogenic as they are the whip-like appendages that some organisms use for movement. However, bacteria and other microorganisms with flagella can be pathogenic, using the flagella to navigate through their host's tissues and cause infections.
