  1. Explain why cells need to move. Include examples of actin-based motility of eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.
  2. Why is drift a problem in AFM experiments? How does the second cantilever correct for this problem?
  3. How could you directly observe the dynamic behavior of the proteins involved in actin-based motility of Listeria?
