Question

1) Determinen whether the characteristics describe cilia only, flagella only or both cilia and flagella

-Powered by ATP
-sweeping moting
-can be used for locomotion
-one or two per cell
-on the outside of a cell
-relatively short length
-relatively long length
-undulatory motion
-many per cell

2.)Classify each description as being a characteristic of microtubles, intermediate filaments, or actin filaments

-are composed of tubulin subunits
-plays a role in cleavage furrow formation during cell division
-function in muscle contraction
-are not involved in cell motility
-fix certain organelles in place
-make up the core of cilia and flagella
-maintain cell shape by resisting compression

Explanation / Answer

1)

Powered by ATP -- Both Cilia and Flagella

sweeping moting - Cilia

can be used for locomotion - Both Cilia and Flagella

one or two per cell - Flagella

on the outside of a cell - Both Cilia and Flagella

relatively short length - Cilia

relatively long length - Flagella

undulatory motion - Flagella

many per cell - Cilia

2)

are composed of tubulin subunits -- Microtubules

plays a role in cleavage furrow formation during cell division --- Microtubules

function in muscle contraction - Actin filaments

are not involved in cell motility -- Microtubules and Intermediary filaments

fix certain organelles in place -- Microtubules

make up the core of cilia and flagella -- Microtubules

maintain cell shape by resisting compression -- Actin filaments
