They don't, particularly.
Cilia are made up of microtubules, which stem from a microtubule organizing centre (MTOC). Not exactly an organelle, per se, but it's all I've got. They're in contact with the cellular architecture, though.

∙ 15y agoNo. I'm pretty sure that cilia aren't organelle. Ther're just tiny hair like things that block out dirt and other stuff from entering your body

What three organelles enable eukaryotic cells to move?
Flagella, Cilia. and Microtubules / Microfilaments
What is the function of cilia and flagella?
Cilia and Flagella are hairlike organelles that branch out from the surface of the cell, where they help in the movement. These organelles can be found in any eukaryotic cells.Cilia are present when there are short and large numbers of organelles on the cell. Flagella are present when there are long and few numbers of organelles on the cell.An example of Cilia is on your respiratory tract. Their job there is to trap particles and debris from the air you inhale. As these cilia move, they sweep the debris and materials back up your throat, where they're removed from when you swallow.An example of Flagella is they're on sperm cells. They whip back and forth and swiftly propel unicellular organisms or specialized cells in multicellular organisms.
The basis of cilia?
sweeps fluids along They are both long and have tails.
What structural feature do cilia and flagella have in common?
they are hair like organelles that extend from the surface of the cell.
These are singular relatively long whiplike organelles that many unicellular organisms use for motion?
Cilia and flagella.
Which organelles make the cell motile?
flagella and cilia
Are the flagella and cilia both cells?
The flagellum and cilia are both "organelles" which make up part of a cell.
Is nucleolus an organelle of locomotion?
No, flagella and cilia are organelles of locomotion.
What organelles are found in eukarotes but not in prokarotes?
protists cells cilia cytoplasm and fangella
What three organelles enable eukaryote to move?
Flagella, Cilia. and Microtubules / Microfilaments
Cilia is the plural form of the Latin for what word?
Singular form of "cilia" is cilium. The meaning of the word "cilia" is hairlike organelles that line the surface of certain cells, and it also means eyelids.
Are cilia natural?
yes the cilia are natural organelles found in the body to help expel mucus and other foreign substances from the respiratory tract
What three organelles enable eukaryotic cells to move?
Flagella, Cilia. and Microtubules / Microfilaments
What organelles do nucleus interact with?
the nuclear membrane
Are cilia and flagella multicellular organisms?
NO! They are organelles of cells of both multicellular and unicellular organisms.
What organelles do cells that line the respiratory passages have?
They are abundant in plasma membranes and cilia/flagellaCilia
What organelles does the endoplasmic reticulum interact with?
