18
New cards

a ___ filament is in the hook and its comprised of

helical, flagellin

19
New cards

assembling the flagellum starts with proteins closests to

29
New cards

three roles of flagella

tactic response, swimming to favored things, virulence

30
New cards

in chemotaxis, bactera move along a

concentraiton gradient

31
New cards

what rotation are flagella in a single bundle

counterclockwise
