Cilia and flagella bend because of a motor protein called dynein.

Explanation;

-Both prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells contain structures known as cilia and flagella. These extensions from the cell surface aid in cell movement. They also help to move substances around cells and direct the flow of substances along tracts.

-Cilia and flagella are formed from specialized groupings of microtubules called basal bodies. If the protrusions are short and numerous they are termed cilia. If they are longer and less numerous they are termed flagella.

The evolutionary theory that suggests that a species can suddenly and rapidly evolve into a new species is ?
Mekhanik [1.2K]

<span>Punctuated Equilibrium/ Equilibria proposes that once species appear in the fossil record, the population  will be in the state of little or absent morphologic change. This is called a state of stasis. The theory further proposes that the population is confined to infrequent and geographical rapid events when significant evolutionary change happens.  The parent species will the split into two distinct species. This process if called cladogenesis.</span>
