cilia
Flagella and cilia of eukaryotic cells consist of a bundle of paired microtubules, an axoneme, embedded in a matrix and surrounded by a membrane that is an extension of the cell membrane. These microtubules have the arrangement: 9 double tubules set in an outer ring around 2 central, separated tubules. At the base of the cilium or flagellum, within the cytoplasm, is a cylindrical structure called a 'basal body' or 'kinetosome'.

Sperm cells have longer projections called flagella that allow them to move with a whiplike motion, aiding in their mobility and ability to reach the egg for fertilization.
A ciliate is a protozoa - a single celled animal - that have cilia or hairlike structures used for motion, feeding, or sensing.
A paramecium moves by beating hair-like structures called cilia in a coordinated manner. These cilia create a flowing movement of water around the paramecium, propelling it forward in a characteristic spiraling motion.
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).
A cog is wheel or bar with a series of projections on its edge that transfers motion by engaging with projections on another wheel or bar. So a cog looks like a circle with square shaped points around the edge.

Projections that allow the cell to move or to move substances along the surface of the cell are called cilia and flagella. Flagella is a single long hair that allows the cell to swim. Cilia are several projections used for movement across the cell surface.
