Flagella allow cells to move throughout the body. An example of this is sperm. The flagellum give sperm the ability to propel itself through the female reproductive tract to fertilize an egg.
"a flagella" is incorrect, since it is a plural. Singular is "flagellum". They are hair-like appendages used for locomotion by single-cell animals.
to propel the cell through liquid
The purpose of flagella (sing., flagellum) is motility. Flagella are long appendages which rotate by means of a "motor" located just under the cytoplasmic membrane. For more information (and image), please see the related links section below.
Yes, that is actually their intended purpose. Many microbes have flagella to help them move around in their environment. The well known "tail" of a sperm cell is actually a flagella and what the sperm uses to move, or "swim", into the uterus.
Flagellum, (plural flagella) is mainly found on sperm, its the tail.

flagella stain Purpose: To determine the presence/absence and location of flagella on various microorganisms Principle: Because bacterial flagella are very thin and fragile a special stain (flagella stain) is prepared that contains a mordant. This mordant allows piling of the stain on the flagella, increasing the thickness until they become visible. Various arrangements of flagella are seen on different cells.

No protists ure a flagella because only animal cells have a flagella.
