monotrichous

lophotrichous

amphitrichous

peritrichous

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each term:

• Monotrichous: "Mono-" means single, so it refers to a single flagellum.
• Lophotrichous: Means a tuft of flagella at one or both ends.
• Amphitrichous: Means flagella at both ends (one or more at each end).
• Peritrichous: Means flagella distributed all over the cell surface.

So the term for a single flagellum is Monotrichous.

A. Monotrichous
