How do microorganisms move?
Apologies for what is probably a simple question
I was never a big biology or even chemistry guy (went down physics and engineering instead :P) but have recently started watching some youtuber who talks about microbiology and its really interesting!
My question though is how do microorganisms move? Like I understand broadly enough how we move with electrical signals causing our muscles to contract, but do microbes do the same sort of thing? I know that they move through a space using cilia or flagella or pseudopods, etc, but how do they get these parts to move? I've tried to do some googling but it all kinda quickly devolves into a bunch of jargon that I just don't have the background to understand.
Thanks for any help! :)
