What else can I help you with?
What are two cell appendages that help the cells move?
flagella or cilia, but they can also move by cytoplasmic streaming
What structures are involved in cell movement?
Cilia are short, hairlike projections that usually occur in large numbers on the surface of certain cells. Flagellaare long, tail like projections. Unlike ciliates, flagellates usually have one flagellum.
What three types of cells might have cilia or flagella?
protists. most likely consumers. they use flagella, cilia, and pseudopodia ( they are a mode of movement)
Along hairlike structure used for movement?
In reference to cells, the answer is cilia.
Is flagella and vacuole the same thing?
no they are not. flagella is a part of an animal cell that allows the animal to walk around in it's environment. vacuoles are only found in plant cells.
Are cilia and flagella the major means of locomotion in multicellular organisms?
Cilia and flagella are structures that aid in locomotion in some multicellular organisms, but they are not the only means of movement. Other methods of locomotion in multicellular organisms can include muscle contractions, changes in body shape, and the use of appendages.
Are cilia and flagella multicellular organisms?
NO! They are organelles of cells of both multicellular and unicellular organisms.
What are 3 other means of locomotion in organisms other than muscle and bone?
Three other means of locomotion in organisms are flagella, pseudopod, and cilia.
Is nucleolus an organelle of locomotion?
No, flagella and cilia are organelles of locomotion.
Important for locomotion of one-celled organisms?
One-celled organisms use structures like cilia and flagella for locomotion. Cilia are short, hair-like projections that beat in a coordinated manner to help the organism move, while flagella are longer whip-like structures that propel the cell forward through a whipping motion. Both structures are important for the movement of one-celled organisms in their environment.
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 is protozan locomotion?
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.
Name three ways in which cilia and flagella differ?
Cilia are shorter and more numerous than flagella. Flagella typically have a whip-like motion, while cilia have a coordinated back-and-forth movement. Functionally, cilia are involved in moving substances along the cell surface, while flagella are used for cell propulsion.
How do flagella differ from cilia in eukaryotic cell?
Flagella are long whip like structures that the organism has only one or two of. Cilia are numerous hair like structures that cover most of the organisms surface. Both impart locomotion to the organism.
How do unicellular organisms use locomotion?
Cilia (hairlike structures) and Flagella(whip-like tails) help organisms move.
What is the organ of locomotion of a ciliate protozoa?
== == They depend on the kind of protozoan. Possibilities are flagella (flagellum singular), cilia, or a pseudopod. == == == ==
Which choice correctly pairs a protozoan with its method of locomotion?
Paramecium - cilia.
