No, paramecia have cilia, which are tiny hair-like projections that propel the paramecium through its environment. Both flagella and cilia propel their cell through its environment.

How do you Compare animallike protists that have flagella to those that have cilia?

Animallike protists with flagella, such as euglenoids and dinoflagellates, typically use their single or few flagella for propulsion, allowing for swift movement in aquatic environments. In contrast, those with cilia, like paramecia, possess numerous short hair-like structures that enable them to move in a coordinated, wave-like manner, providing greater control and stability. While both types of protists use their appendages for locomotion and feeding, the structural differences between flagella and cilia result in distinct movement patterns and adaptations to their environments.
