WHAT DOES AXONEME MEAN IN ENGLISH?

axoneme

Axoneme

Numerous eukaryotic cells carry whip-like appendages whose inner core consists of a cytoskeletal structure called the axoneme. The axoneme serves as the "skeleton" of these organelles, both giving support to the structure and, in some cases, causing it to bend. Though distinctions of function and/or length may be made between cilia and flagella, the internal structure of the axoneme is common to both.

Definition of axoneme in the English dictionary

The definition of axoneme in the dictionary is the part of a cell, consisting of proteins and microtubes, which forms the core.
