Answer: Lophotrichous and monotrichous
Which of the following types of bacterial cells would have flagella located at only one end of the cell?

Three types of flagella have so far been distinguished: bacterial archaeal and eukaryotic. The main difference between bacterial and archaeal flagella and eukaryotic flagella is that the bacteria and archaea do not have microtubules or dynein in their flagella and eukaryotes do have microtubules and dynein in the structure of their flagella. Other differences among these three types are: • Bacterial flagella are helical filaments each with a rotary motorat its base which can turn clockwise or c…

The bacterial cell is surrounded by a cell membrane which is made primarily of phospholipids. This membrane encloses the contents of the cell and acts as a barrier to hold nutrients proteins and other essential components of the cytoplasm within the cell. Unlike eukaryotic cells bacteria usually lack large membrane-bound structures in their cytoplasm such as a nucleus mitochondria chloroplastsand the other organelles present in eukaryotic cells. However some bacteria have protein-bound organelles in the cy…

Some of the bacteria possessing a T3SS have flagella as well and are motile (Salmonella for instance) and some do not (Shigella for instance). Technically speaking type III secretion is used both for secreting infection-related proteins and flagellar components.

Introduction. E. coli and related bacteria constitute about 0.1% of gut flora and fecal–oral transmission is the major route through which pathogenic strains of the bacterium cause disease. Cells are able to survive outside the body for only a limited amount of time which makes them ideal indicator organisms to test environmental samples for fecal contamination.
