Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

* Prokaryotic and eukaryotic flagella are structurally dissimilar.
* Cilia work like oars and comparatively smaller than flagella.
The core of cilium or flagellum is called axoneme.
* Central tubules are connected by bridges and is enclosed by centrl sheath.
Central sheath is connected to one of the tubules of each peripheral doublets by a radial spoke. There are nine radial spokes.
* Peripheral doublets are also interconnected by linkers/interdoublet bridges.
