    Fungal flagellum originates from

    A)  dictyosomes    

    B)  kinetosomes

    C)  glyoxysomes    

    D)  oxysomes

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     When a centriole bears a flagellum, it is called basal body. Other similar names have also been given to basal body including basal granule,   kinetosome,   basal   corpuscle, blepharoplast and proximal centriole. Golgi bodies in lower plants and animals are known by the name dictyosomes. Glyoxysomes are rounded membrane bound very tiny cytoplasmic structures. These are generally found in the seeds or at places where fats are converted to carbohydrates. Oxysome or\[{{F}_{1}}\]particles are found on the cristae of mitochondria. Oxysomes are mainly concerned with oxidative phosphorylation.
