Flagella are longer and more numerous than cilia?
Np, they are less numerous then cilia
What is the flagella and cilia?
Cilia and flagella are both hair-like structures that extend from the surface of the cell, where they assist in movement.Cilia are short and more numerous than the longer flagella. They both have a membrane on their outer surface and have an internal structure of nine pairs of microtubules around two central tubules.Sources:Postlethwait, John H., and Janet L. Hopson.

Do Longer worms have less more or the same number of segments as short worms?
longer worms have more, less, or the same segmented
How are new species created?
Through Speciation - an evolutionary process which causes organisms which were once of the same species to become genetically distinct from one another (over numerous generations) to the point where they can no longer produce fertile offspring More info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Speciation
Who has longer bones a mouse or an elephant?
An elephant has more skin.
Flagella are longer and more numerous than cilia?

Flagella are longer and more numerous than cillia?
Flagella are longer than cilia but, not as numerous as cilia. Cilia usually surround the surface of a cell. Flagella are usually found only once (eg. sperm)
Are cilia shorter and more numerous than flagella?
true
What 2 organelles help the cell move?
You might want to double check put i am pretty sure it is diffusion and osmosis.
Explain how the ultrastructure of cilia and flagella relates to their functions?
cilia are short fibers that are use for attachment to surfaces (biofilms). flagella are longer fibers that are connected to a complex base that rotates. rotation requires atp. this rotation causes the cells to move.cilia are usually dispersed all over the cell's surface. flagella are placed in more distinct areas (on the ends or sides).
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.
Distinguish cilia and flagella?
Cilia are tiny hair like structures that cover a cell and help it to move, move liquid that is around it or to clean something. A flagellum is a whip-like tail, usually cells only have one, occasionally two, and help the cell to move. Cilia and flagellum are only found on animal cells and not all animal cells have them.
What organelles are small hairlike structures used for movement or sensing things?
There are two types or hairlike structures that microorganisms use for movement. They are cilia (singular: cilium) and flagella (singular: flagellum). Usually microorganisms have cilia (more than one cilium) and flagellum (usually only one).
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.
Along hairlike structure used for movement?
In reference to cells, the answer is cilia.

Does a paramecium have legs?
Yes, a paramecium uses its cilia (hairlike structures on its cell membrane) to move.
