Organs of Motility.—^The outer surface of spherical bacteria is almostalways smooth and devoid of appendages; but that of the rods andspirals is frequently provided with fine, hair-like appendages, orflagella,which are organs of motility (Plate III, Figs. 18-21). These flagella,either singly or in tufts, are sometimes distributed over the entire bodyof the cell, or they may appear only at one or both ends of the polar flagella appear on the bacteria shortly before division.
