Category:GO:0036126 ! sperm flagellum
name: sperm flagellum
namespace: cellular_component
def: "A microtubule-based flagellum (or cilium) that is part of a sperm, a mature male germ cell that develops from a spermatid." [GOC:cilia, GOC:sart, PMID:8441407]
comment: Note that cilia and eukaryotic flagella are deemed to be equivalent. In this case community usage is always 'flagellum', hence the primary term name, but the cilium parentage is deliberate.
synonym: "sperm cilium" EXACT []
