cilia are tiny hair-like structures that "push" or "row" the organism through a medium. Double check though. I think a paramecium may move using a flagella (a single larger whip-like structure)

Paramecium is a representative of?
Ciliates
Which protists moves by many short hair-like projections?
Paramecium.
Is protozoa harmful or helpful?
Paramecium cilia are little hairs around its body that can make it move in different directions. It is beneficial to the paramecium to get food (bacteria) and there are no harmful effects.
What is the clear elastic protein layer around the cell membrane of ciliates like the paramecium?
Pellicle
The organism paramecium moves with what?
Paramecium move with cillia.
Paramecium is a representative of?
Ciliates
Paramecium is a representative of the?
Ciliates
Protozoan that moves by means of cilia?
the answer is ciliates this is protozoa that move using cilia, such as a paramecium. hope this helped, the science dude
How do ciliates deal with osmosis?
Some ciliates, like the paramecium, have contractile vacuoles that fill with water and then expel the water when they get full.

Why can some protists move faster than others?
Some can move faster than others because of 1) their size 2) the structure they use for moving* (sarcodines=pseudopods, ciliates=cilia, flagellates=flagella) *some of the structures move faster (i.e. sarcodines are slower than ciliates because the pseudopods take a while to form, while cilia can beat rapidly at the pace it wants to)
How do ciliates?
Ciliates, a unicellular protozoa, use their cilia, tiny hair-like organelles, to move around.
Explain any differences that exist between ciliates and flagellates?
Ciliates -use the cilia to move. Flagellates- they move by whipping there flagella side to side .
The organism paramecium moves with what?
Paramecium move with cillia.
What structure allow the paramecium to move?
The cilia cause the paramecium to move.
