Answer:

Bacterial flagella is the external structure that is thin, long and filamentous. It is attached to the cell wall of the bacteria which helps in the locomotion of the bacteria. It has three parts a filament, hook and basal body. The basal body is incorporated in the cell membrane.

A flagellum is made up of a protein called flagellin. It is a rigid protein and helps in making the hollow core of the filament by assembling together to form a structure which is cylindrical in shape.

The organization of flagella on bacterial cells is helpful in the identification of bacterial species. Mostly 4 type of organization of flagella is present on bacterial cell that are monotrichous, amphitrichous, lophoyrichous and perithrichous.

In monotrichious bacteria, only one flagella is present on one side, in amphitrichous both side of the cell have an equal amount of flagella. Lophotrichous bacteria have a group of flagella at one side of the cell and amphitrichous bacteria have many flagella distributed equally on its cell.

What are some of the functions of photosystem i and photosystem ii in plants?
Sidana [21]

Answer:

Photosystem I (PS-I )and photosystem II (PS-II ) are two multi-protein complexes. These complexes contain the pigments used to absorb, harvest and catalyze the photons and light energy in the photosynthetic reactions. The main purpose of photosynthesis reactions to produce high chemical energy compounds.

Photosystem I and II are different from each other because of their absorbing wavelength of light. PS-I absorbs the longer wavelength of light than PS-II.

PS-I plays the major role in the production of high energy carriers ATP and NADPH using light energy (700 nm).

PS-II plays its function in the hydrolysis of water and ATP synthesis using light energy (680 nm).
