Fig. 7. The cell swimming motion as a function of the amplitude-to-wavelength ratio {pi}at/{lambda}t in model cells with a transverse flagellum. Solid, broken and dot-dashed lines indicate h2TF, h9TF and sTF cells, respectively. Horizontal and vertical lines show the average value for observed cells (Miyasaka et al., 1998; Table 1). (A) Speed ratio VX/(ft{lambda}t). (B) Frequency ratio {Omega}c. (C) Efficiency {eta}. at, amplitude of transverse flagellum wave; {lambda}t, wavelength of transverse flagellum wave; VX, net displacement speed of cell; ft, frequency of transverse flagellum wave; {Omega}c, angular speed of cell. See Table 1 for model cell abbreviations.
