Question
what is the function of the whip like structure on the bacterial cell? *
protection
support
movement
passive transport______energy. *
requires
does not require
Step1: Function of bacterial flagella
Bacterial flagella (the whip - like structure) are used for movement. They rotate like propellers to move the bacterial cell through liquid environments.
Step2: Nature of passive transport
Passive transport, such as diffusion and osmosis, occurs along the concentration gradient. It does not require the input of energy (in the form of ATP). Active transport requires energy as it moves substances against the concentration gradient.
