Yes they do. An example of what flagellum looks like would be sperm. Here is a mechanical lay-out to what they actually are made of.

∙ 15y agoSome single celled plant based organisms do have flagellum, and swim about.
At the single cell level the distinctions between plants and animals are more arbitrary, but the basic difference is still that plants generate their food by photosynthesis, whereas animals consume other matter as food.

∙ 13y agoThey can have both.
Cilia are little 'hairs' that surround the entire cell while flagella are longer 'hairs' at one end of the cell that help propel it.

∙ 11y agoyes,some have like euglena a protozoan(it has chlorophyll too) has flagella for locomotion.

Human (animal) sperm cells have flagellum.

Is flagella in animal cell or plant cell?
Animals cells use cilia and flagella for movement.
Is the flagella in the animal cell or the plant cell?
Generally neither. Plant cells to not have flagella and, apart from sperm, neither do animal cells. Flaglla are more characteristic of bacteria and protists.
Are flagella found in plant cells?
Flagella are not cells - they are extensions of cells that render the cell motile. (Think of it as a tail of some sort.) Sperms have flagella and other unicellular organisms such as paramecium and other organisms such as bacteria have flagella too. It isn't common for plant cells to have flagella.
Is cilia found in both plant and animal cells?
Most plant cells have neither flagellum nor cilium but in some cases there are exceptions. For example, the cycads have some cells with cilia and flagella. In particular, sperm cells have a flagella.
What exists in animal cells that does not exist in plant cells?
mitochondria flagella cilia just to name a few

What structures are found in an animal cell but not in plant cells?
centrioles, lysosomes, cilia or flagella
Is flagella plant or animal?
both(plant and animal)
Are there flagella on plant cells?
Generally not, although some plant sperm do have flagella.
Which of these is NOT found in animal cells?
The following are found in plant cells and NOT in animal cells: -plasmodesmata -chloroplasts -large central vacuoles -cell wall -tonoplast The following are found in animal cells and NOT in plant cells: -lysosomes -centrioles -flagella (although some are found in plant sperm)
Is flagella found in plant or animal cells?
it is not found in plants unless bacteria is in the plant because it is the tail part of bacteria. i am a 5th grader
What protist uses flagella?
No protists ure a flagella because only animal cells have a flagella.
What are 2 similarities and 2 differences of a plant and animal cell?
Both plant and animal cells are similar in that they are both eukaryotic cells and contain the proteins and enzymes necessary for survival. They differ in that plant cells contain chloroplasts while animal cells don't and animal cells contain lysosomes that plants do not.
