Setae in annelids are stiff bristles present on the body. They help for example earthworms to attach to the surface and prevent backsliding during peristaltic motion. These hairs are what make it difficult to pull a worm straight from the ground. (finzio liflio)
What are short hairlike projections used for locomotion called?

Short projections used for oarlike locomotion are called?
CILIA
What does a cilia do in an animal cell?
cilia are short hair-like structures used for locomotion (movement)
What are similarities between the Paramecium and Amoeba?
*they are all animal like protists *they can move on their own *they feed on other animal like and plant like organisms
Hairlike structure that used for movement?
cilia
What is locomotion in paramoecium?
Cilia is used for locomotion in paramoecium.
These are short hair-like organelles on the surface of a eukaryotic cell used for locomotion or sensory functions?
The correct answer to this is cilia.
What complex structures used for locomotion evolved in protists?
Flagella, Cilia and Cytoplasmic Streaming. Cilia are small hairlike structures that protists use to "crawl". A flagella is a long tail that pushes and propels the protist forward, also used by sperm cells. Cytoplasmic Streaming is used by the amoeba to "ooze" its way to places.
