CMC MedicalCMC Medical 2010

Solution:

Peritrichous indicates having flagella uniformly distributed over the body surface as in certain bacteria. Lophotrichous denotes having two or more flagella at one or both ends of a bacterial cell. Cephalotrichous are bacteria with many flagella attached at one end. Amphitrichous are bacteria with a single flagellum at one end.
