THE CYTOLOGY AND LIFE-HISTORY OF 



;acteria 



may also be confused with cellular inclusions and have given rise to a variety 

 of misconceptions. 



The cell wall of myxobacteria is flexible and is an organ of motihty. 



Spore coats resemble the cell walls and may be single or multiple. 



The flagella are organs ot motility, they are spiral and composed of fibrous 

 protein. They arise from blepharoplasts in the cell membrane. In the 

 germinating microcyst the flagella develop first at the pole remote from the 

 growing point of the cell.
