0 the ability of plants, organisms, and very small forms of of life to be able to move by themselves: --
Motility of cultured cells was recorded with time-lapse videocassette recorder at day 11.
Podosomes form highly transient matrix adhesions and are dynamically turned over within 2-12 min during osteoclast motility.
The survival time was determined as the duration of time required until worm motility had completely stopped.
The movement of females ceased at 4 days at a concentration of 50 mg ml21 whereas the motility of males was only reduced.
A concentration of 50 mg ml21 stopped motility of females at 4 days but only reduced the motility of males.
This is due to a reduction in colonic absorptive capacity and possible derangement of colonic motility.
Therefore, we conclude that a blebbing mode of motility is the exception rather than the rule in a brain-tissue environment.
This additional energy obtained in the presence of oxygen may be vital for the maintenance of motility and for survival of these organisms.
