Trichomonads are a group of single-celled, flagellated protozoa that are responsible for a type of sexually transmitted infection (STI) in humans, known as trichomoniasis. They are shapeless, ameboid cells that move using whip-like structures called flagella. Trichomonads are typically found in the reproductive tract of humans and other animals.<br><br>In humans, trichomoniasis is usually caused by the protozoan parasite Trichomonas vaginalis, which infects the vagina in women and the urethra in men. The infection can be spread through sexual contact with an infected partner. Symptoms of trichomoniasis can include itching, burning, redness, and discharge from the affected area.<br><br>Trichomonads are also found in other animals, including protozoan animals such as anaerobic parasites, intestinal amoebas, and others. In some cases, trichomonads have been identified as commensals or ecotechnic endosymbionts in the host.<br><br>Trichomonads are often studied in cell biology labs due to their motility mechanism, subcellular organization, and flagella dynamics, making them a valuable model system for understanding cellular locomotion and the structure of flagella.
noun Trichomonas: A genus of parasitic flagellated protozoa. Specifically, trichomonas vaginalis is a sexually transmitted parasitic flagellated protozoan, which can cause trichomoniasis, a disease that leads to changes in the discharge and inflammation of the cervix and vagina.

These infections are often referred to as ringworm, athlete's foot, or jock itch.<br><br>Trichophyton species are normally found on animals or in soil and are typically transmitted to humans through contact with contaminated surfaces, skin-to-skin contact, or contact with infected animals.
