What are Hair like structures that move materials along the outer surface of the cell?
Cilia in eukaryotes and flagella in Protists and Bacteria.
How do the cilia and flagella of protists differ from those of bacteria?
Bacteria only have cilia while protists have both cilia and flagella.
What are short hairlike projections used for locomotion called?
Short hairlike projections that are used for locomotion are called cilia. Cilia are normally found on unicellular organisms and not multicellular organisms.

What are the hair like structures that are known as the street sweepers of the lungs called?
The hair-like structures found in the lungs are known as cilia, specifically motile cilia. There are other forms of cilia as well, for example non-motile cilia can be found in other organ systems, and as organelles on many cells in the body.
What are motile processes?
cilia; they appear like short hairs under a microscope. Cilia can be found on prokaryotic cells or eukaryotic cells. They can be found on unicellular organisms where they are most likely responsible for movement. In multicellular organisms, they are most often found where the cells need to produce movement for function of the organ system or protection.
What are the cellular organelles located on the cell surface that protrude from the cell and beat and vibrate?
