Question

What are the differences between bacterial flagella and archaella? Select all that apply.

Archaella flex like whips; bacterial flagella rotate like propellers.

Archaellar rotation is powered by ATP; bacterial flagellar rotation is powered by ion gradients.

Extension is coupled to rotation in archaella but not in bacterial flagella.

Archaellar filaments are left-handed helices; bacterial flagellar filaments are right-handed helices.

Archaella are evolutionarily related to type II secretion systems; bacterial flagella are related to type III secretion systems.

Archaella are wrapped in a membrane; bacterial flagella are not wrapped in a membrane.

Archaella are thinner than bacterial flagella.

Archaella are extended at the base; bacterial flagella are extended at the tip.

Archaella have filaments of archaellin; bacterial flagella have filaments of flagellin.

Archaella have the same arrangement of microtubules as eukaryotic cilia; bacterial flagella do not contain microtubules.
