They both help in the movement. Flagella can sense temperature. Perhaps you mean 3 types of cilia or flagella?

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.


Are cilia and flagella found in every cell?

No, cilia and flagella are not found on every cell.Cilia can be found:1) on many organisms within the ciliate group of protists (single celled eukaryotes) eg: paramecium. These usually give the cell motility, but can also be for moving food.2) on certain cells of animals and humans, eg: respiratory epithelial cells and cells in female fallopian tubes. These serve to function the entire organism (eg: clearing mucous)3) on some plant cells, eg: within the division Cycadophyta. These are for motility of gametes.Flagella can be found:1) on many organisms within the flagellate group of protists (single celled eukaryotes) eg: euglena2) on certain cells of animals and humans, eg: sperm.3) on some bacteria species (prokaryotes) eg: SalmonellaentericaFlagella give a cell motility.


How Are Cilia and Flagella Constructed?

This happens after a complex cascade reaction that occurs primality in the D52 cytoplasmic region. For reasons unknown only four out of 6 cascades will make it to completion. The other two almost always kitboot-it before the 3 stage can occur.


What contain the 9 2 arrangement of microtubules 1. cilia 2. centrioles 3. flagella 4. a and c only 5. a b and c?

#4. Both cilia and flagella use the 9+2 arrangement to generate movement. The centrioles gives rise to the microtubules, then it remains below the finished array as a basal body. centriole has 9+0 arrangement starting from basal body


What are three structure protozoans use to move?

3 types of locomotion:pseudopods : eg: amoebas. extensions of their cytoplasm, called false feet.flagella : longcilia : numerous shorter appendages.

What cylinder-shaped organelle in animal cells help make flagella?

Cilia and flagella are organelles, made up of proteins. They are composed of microtubules. The cilia has a basal body with a 9 + 3 structure of microtubules and the body of the cilia has a ratio of 9 + 0 structure of microtubules.(The NovaNet answer is Centriole)


What 3 things do single celled organisms use to move around?

They have Flagellum attached to the back of them that propel them. Think of sperm cells: that little tail at the end in a flagellum.

What are 3 other means of locomotion in organisms other than muscle and bone?

Three other means of locomotion in organisms are flagella, pseudopod, and cilia.


What are organs of motility in protists you have learned about?

Some protists use cilia, flagella, or pseudopods for motility. Cilia are short, hair-like structures that beat in a coordinated manner to move the cell. Flagella are longer whip-like structures that propel the cell forward. Pseudopods are temporary bulges of the cell membrane that extend and contract to push the cell in a particular direction.

Does a paramecium have legs?

No, a paramecium does not have legs. Instead, it moves using hair-like structures called cilia that cover its outer surface. These cilia beat in a coordinated manner to propel the paramecium through its environment.

What is a tail-like structure which allows certain unicellular organisms to move?

Ciliates There you go. That is the right answer. For A+ Students<3


What are the distinguishing features of the major phyla of animal like protists?

1) Zooflagellates swim with flagella 2) Sarcodines move by extensions of their cytoplasm 3) Ciliates move by means of cilia 4) Sporozoans do not move on their own at all.


What are three types of motility by protozoa?

Three types of motility by protozoa are ciliary movement, flagellar movement, and pseudopodial movement. Ciliary movement involves the coordinated beating of small hair-like structures called cilia, flagellar movement involves the use of whip-like structures called flagella, and pseudopodial movement involves the extension and retraction of temporary finger-like projections called pseudopods.
