| Abstract from DBPedia | A flagellate is a cell or organism with one or more whip-like appendages called flagella. The word flagellate also describes a particular construction (or level of organization) characteristic of many prokaryotes and eukaryotes and their means of motion. The term presently does not imply any specific relationship or classification of the organisms that possess flagella. However, the term "flagellate" is included in other terms (such as "dinoflagellate" and "choanoflagellata") which are more formally characterized.鞭毛虫（べんもうちゅう）とは、原生動物の中で鞭毛で運動する生物を総称する呼び方である。以前は分類群の名称として用いられた事もあったが、21世紀初頭現在では専ら「鞭毛を持つ原生生物」の意味で用いられ、自然分類群としての要素は無い。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Flagellate) |
