Parts of a bacterial flagellum include the basal body (discs and rod), hook (joining the discs), and filament (hollow protein structure in a helix).
Las partes del flagelo bacteriano son el cuerpo basal (discos y varilla), el gancho (une los discos) y el filamento (estructura hueca de proteínas en hélice).
