Microtubules
Cilia and flagella contain microtubules, which are a type of cytoskeleton fiber made up of tubulin protein subunits. Microtubules provide structural support and are involved in the movement of cilia and flagella.
The movement of cilia and flagella is powered by the ATP-dependent motor protein dynein, which hydrolyzes ATP to provide the energy needed for movement. Dynein is responsible for producing the sliding motion between microtubule doublets, causing cilia and flagella to bend and generate movement.
Stentor is a ciliated protozoan, meaning it has cilia for movement.
Cilia and flagella are hairlike structures in a cell that can move. They are involved in various cellular processes such as cell motility and the movement of fluid. Cilia are short and numerous, while flagella are longer and usually occur singly or in pairs.
Cilia, flagella, and the cytoskeleton are cellular structures associated with movement. Cilia and flagella are hair-like structures that aid in cell motility, while the cytoskeleton provides structural support and is involved in intracellular movement.

Blepharisma have cilia, which are hair-like structures used for movement and feeding. Flagella are whip-like structures used for propulsion in some microorganisms, but Blepharisma primarily rely on their cilia for movement.

The Flagella
Flagella and cilia do not have a membrane of their own. They are extensions of the cell membrane and are composed of microtubules. These structures help with cell movement and sensory functions in various organisms.

protists. most likely consumers. they use flagella, cilia, and pseudopodia ( they are a mode of movement)
