For you non-microbiologists, the previous sentence means that the bacteria have flagella (long structures that can be rotated to propel the bacterium) all over the cell and when they are swimming, the flagella propel the cell forward as shown in this hat. A few examples of these bacteria are \u003cem\u003eE. coli\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eSalmonella\u003c\/em\u003e, and \u003cem\u003eBacillus subtilis\u003c\/em\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are making this hat, make sure to check your gauge!
