Best Answer

Virtually all eukaryotic cilia and flagella are composed of a central bundle of microtubules. This bundled arrangement is called an anoxeme. In the anoxeme, nine outer doubled microtubules surround an inner pair of single microtubules.

False, eukaryotic cells have both cilia and flagella that are composed of microtubules.


What is the function of cilia and the flagella and where are they found?

Flagella is the tail-like piece connected to the Cell Body of certain prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells and it functions in locomotion. The Cilia is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that also project from the cell body. In Eukaryotic Cells the Cilia and Flagella make up a group of organelles called the undulipodia and the Cilia and Flagella are structurally similar.
