Question
Chapter 2, Problem 8TOF
Summary Introduction
To Determine:
Whether the given statement "Cilia and flagella contain an axoneme, but microvilli do not" is true or false.
Introduction:
Microvilli or microvillus are the microscopic cellular membrane protrusions. These helpin increasing the surface area for diffusion and diminish any increase in volume. These are involved in anextensiverange of functions such as absorption,cellular adhesion, secretion, and mechano-transduction.

On seeking the help of a fertility specialist, Kevin learned that he has a hereditary form of male sterility involving nonmotile sperm. His condition can be traced to defects in the cytoskeletal components of the sperms flagella. As a result of this finding, the physician suspected that Kevin also has a long history of recurrent respiratory tract disease. Kevin confirmed that indeed he has had colds, bronchitis, and influenza more frequently than his friends. Why would the physician suspect that Kevin probably had a history of frequent respiratory disease based on his diagnosis of sterility from nonmotile sperm?arrow_forwardDescribe the general functions of the following in a eukaryotic cell: the plasma membrane, cytoplasm, DNA, ribosomes, organelles, and cytoskeleton.arrow_forward
