Answer:

The axial filament is located between the cell membrane and the outer membrane.

Step-by-step explanation:

Axial filaments are structures used for motility too. They wraped around the cell body and are found in spyrochetes. The origin of the flagella is in the periplasmic space, the space between the inner membrane and the outer membrane they differ because other flagellum are near the cell surface, attached to the basal body enclosed in the cell envelope.
