Ciliates are appropriately named because they use cilia.
No, It is not used for respiration instead it is used for the movement or locomotion of body.
Flagella (plural of flagellum) and cilia are hair-like, extra-cellular projections. Flagella are usually associated with prokaryotic cells and have the function of conferring motility. Cilia tend to be associated with eukaryotic cells and again have the function of bringing about movement of the whole cell or as in the epithelial cells of animals are involved the movement or transport of materials. e.g. help to keep the lungs clean. Pseudopodia (plural of pseudopodium - meaning 'false foot') are usually associated with the whole-cell movement of amoeba. Extension of the cytoplasm allow the unicellular organism to move.
They move with flagella, cilia, or pseudopods.
Flagella are longer than cilia but, not as numerous as cilia. Cilia usually surround the surface of a cell. Flagella are usually found only once (eg. sperm)
Protozoa are capable of locomotion by means of cilia, flagella, or a pseudopodium. While cilia and flagella are hair-like structures used by protozoa for movement, the pseudopodium is a projection or false limb utilized for the same purpose. Protozoa are uni-cellular organisms.
No, It is not used for respiration instead it is used for the movement or locomotion of body.
Ciliates have hair-like structures called cilia for movement, while sarcodines use pseudopods or false feet for locomotion. Ciliates have complex cell structures with distinct organelles, while sarcodines have simpler cell structures. Ciliates reproduce asexually through binary fission and sexually through conjugation, while sarcodines typically reproduce asexually through binary fission.
True. Dinoflagellates are single-celled organisms belonging to the algae group, and they typically have two flagella that they use for movement. These flagella help dinoflagellates navigate through water and capture their food.
Flagella and cilia of eukaryotic cells consist of a bundle of paired microtubules, an axoneme, embedded in a matrix and surrounded by a membrane that is an extension of the cell membrane. These microtubules have the arrangement: 9 double tubules set in an outer ring around 2 central, separated tubules. At the base of the cilium or flagellum, within the cytoplasm, is a cylindrical structure called a 'basal body' or 'kinetosome'.
No. Amoeba and ciliates are two groups of protozoan parasites. The amoeba are unicellular, which are characterized by the pseudopodia. Ciliates are protozoa, unicellular and use cilia on their surface.
False
Flagella (plural of flagellum) and cilia are hair-like, extra-cellular projections. Flagella are usually associated with prokaryotic cells and have the function of conferring motility.

Pseudopodia (plural of pseudopodium - meaning 'false foot') are usually associated with the whole-cell movement of amoeba. Extension of the cytoplasm allow the unicellular organism to move.
three ways protozoans move are cilia, pushing out part of their bodys called pseudopod, and flagella.
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.
They move with flagella, cilia, or pseudopods.
Flagella are longer than cilia but, not as numerous as cilia. Cilia usually surround the surface of a cell. Flagella are usually found only once (eg. sperm)
A psedopod is a temporary projection or "false foot" that some single-celled organisms, like amoebas, use for movement and feeding. It helps them to change shape and move by extending and contracting.
