Talk:Axoneme

Untitled

This is not written well for laymen. I can't even digest the first sentence. Maurreen 5 July 2005 04:57 (UTC)

I agree; what about: Most eukaryotic cells carry long apendages (cilia or eukaryotic flagella) whose inner core consits of a highly-conserved cytoskeletal structure called the axonem. --Benjamin.friedrich 13:22, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Changed the first sentence, maybe a native speaker volunteers to polish it. --Benjamin.friedrich 13:36, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

Axonems everywhere

Shouldn't one state that axonemes are ubiquitous and have numerous functions: inside the flagellum they propel sperm cells, they transport mucus in the trachea, or carry receptors in receptor neurons within the nose and the eye. Even the kinocilium in the ear contains an axonem. --Benjamin.friedrich 13:22, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

Axonemes are part of the overall structure of cilia and flagella, it is in their pages that the their ubiquitous nature should be mentioned, not the axoneme's. I'm not sure how clear I was saying that, so as an example, you wouldn't say '600 skeletons marched along the streets' instead of '600 men marched along the streets'. - 129.67.38.35 (talk) 23:29, 24 November 2010 (UTC) (I think that's what you do when you don't have an account?)
