For single-celled eukaryotes, cilia and flagella are essential for the locomotion of individual organisms. In multicellular organisms, cilia function to move fluid or materials past an immobile cell as well as moving a cell or group of cells.
Many eukaryotic cells are ciliated with primary cilia. Primary cilia play important roles in chemosensation,mechanosensation, and thermosensation. Cilia may thus be "viewed as sensory cellular antennae that coordinate a large number of cellular signaling pathways, sometimes coupling the signaling to ciliary motility or alternatively to cell division and differentiation

What type of cell is the cilia a plant cell or animal cell?
it is in a plant cell
What does Cilia Do in the animal cell?
The cilia does a number of things in the animal cell. The main function is to help the cells in terms of movement.
What is the cilia function in a animal cell?
Cilia and flagella help the cell to 'swim' in the body and move around. They're like tails or tentacles.
What does a cilia do in an animal cell?
cilia are short hair-like structures used for locomotion (movement)
What structures are found in an animal cell but not in plant cells?
centrioles, lysosomes, cilia or flagella
What type of cell is the cilia a plant cell or animal cell?
it is in a plant cell
Is cilia in an animal cell?
yes
Does an animal cell have a cilia?
yes
What does Cilia Do in the animal cell?
The cilia does a number of things in the animal cell. The main function is to help the cells in terms of movement.
Is cilia in plants or animal?
it is in a plant cell
What cell parts do animal cells have that plants do not have?
Animal cells have a lysosomes that are not present and cilia that are rarely seen in plant cells. The lysosomes are the recycling and disposal site in the animal cell. The cilia help the cell move.
Is a cilia in a plant cell or animal cell?
neither. cilia are sometimes in animal cell i think, but i think that theyre just parts of protists. plant cells wouldnt really need them.
What does an animal cell have that a palnt cell does not?
lysosome, Cilia, Flagella, Microvilli, Centrioles
Do animal cell have microtubles?
Of course they have. They are in cytoskeleton,flagella and cilia
What is the cilia function in a animal cell?
Cilia and flagella help the cell to 'swim' in the body and move around. They're like tails or tentacles.
Which feature would be important in telling apart an animal from a plant?
The cell structure is useful in determining if an animal or a plant. A plant has chloroplast, a central vacuole, cellulose and a cell wall, giving it a sort of square shape. An animal cell has lysosome, centrioles and cilia.
Is flagella in animal cell or plant cell?
Animals cells use cilia and flagella for movement.
