They have similar structure. Flagella are longer.Cilia are shoreter

How do cilia and flagella use the cytoskeletal components?
Cilia and flagella are made up of microtubules.Both have same structure.In eukariyotes they have 9+2 structure.
What is the function of cilia and the flagella and where are they found?
Flagella is the tail-like piece connected to the Cell Body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and it functions in locomotion. The Cilia is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that also project from the cell body. In Eukaryotic Cells the Cilia and Flagella make up a group of organelles called the undulipodia and the Cilia and Flagella are structurally similar.
Is the Stentor a Cilia or Flagella?
Cilia
What are cilia and flagella?
Cilia and flagella are whip-like appendages that extend from the surface of the cells. They move liquid past the surface of the cell . They also help single-celled organisms to swim.
How do the cilia and flagella of protists differ from those of bacteria?
Bacteria only have cilia while protists have both cilia and flagella.

What is the function of cilia in a bacteria cell?
Bacteria do not have cilia. They have fimbriae and flagella.

What is prokaryotic cell movement attributed to?
cilia and flagella
What is the function of cilia and the flagella and where are they found?
Flagella is the tail-like piece connected to the Cell Body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and it functions in locomotion.

In Eukaryotic Cells the Cilia and Flagella make up a group of organelles called the undulipodia and the Cilia and Flagella are structurally similar.
Does flagella or cilia have a membrane?
If you are talking about the flagella and cilia separately, neither do.
What structures allow for cell movement?
Cilia and flagella
Cilia and flagella are most similar in?
length and number
