A

A “magic cloak”. Protects bacterial cells from ingestion and destruction of white blood cells

19
Q

Flagellum

A

Long whiplike structure by which some tiny plants and animals move

20
Q

Plastid, pilus, plasmid

A

3-small circular dna molecule found in bacteria and some other microscopic organisms

21
Q

Vesicle

A

Small sac/cryst that contains fluid/gas

22
Q

Centriole

A

2 tiny structures located in the cytoplasm near the nuclear envelope

23
