Answer
(a) flagellum- long, thin and helical appendages;
(b) inclusion- small bodies within the cytoplasm;
(c) ribosomes- consist of RNA and protein;
(d) pilus (fimbria)- tiny, hollow projections that used to attach bacteria to surfaces;
(e) chromosome
(f) capsule or slime layer- protective structure outside the cell wall;
(g) cell wall- maintains the characteristic shape of the cell;
(h) cell membrane- boundary between a cell and its environment;
(i) cytoplasm- semifluid substance inside the cell membrane;
(j) plasmid- smaller cicular molecules of DNA;
