flagella
Cilia and flagella are short hairlike structures made of microtubules that help move cells. Cilia are shorter and numerous, whereas flagella are longer and fewer in number. Both structures aid in cell movement and fluid flow.
The group is likely to be the Stramenopiles, which are characterized by having cells with flagella that have one long, fine hairlike projection and one shorter, smooth projection. This characteristic is known as "hairy" flagella and is distinctive to the Stramenopiles group.
Cilia are hairlike projections from cells that move with a wave-like pattern. They are involved in a variety of functions, such as movement of fluid or particles along the cell's surface or sensory perception.
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.
The cytoskeleton is composed of microfilaments (actin filaments) and microtubules. These components provide structure and support to cells, as well as playing a role in cell movement and intracellular transport.

No, microtubules are not found in prokaryotic cells. They are a component of the cytoskeleton in eukaryotic cells and play essential roles in cell division, intracellular transport, and structural support. Prokaryotic cells lack many membrane-bound organelles and complex cytoskeletal structures.
Microtubules are found in Eukarytotic cells. However, some archeabacteria have been found to contain microtubule-like structures but these are not true microtubules.
The cytoskeleton is composed of microfilaments (actin filaments) and microtubules. These components provide structure and support to cells, as well as playing a role in cell movement and intracellular transport.
Microtubules are composed of tubulin protein subunits that polymerize into long, hollow tubes. They are essential for cell structure, intracellular transport, and cell division. Microtubules dynamically assemble and disassemble, allowing cells to quickly reorganize their structure as needed.
The assembly of microtubules responsible for moving chromosomes during anaphase is called the mitotic spindle. It is composed of microtubules that attach to chromosomes and help separate them into two new daughter cells during cell division.
