Flagellates are protozoa that moves by means of a whiplike organism.
It is called the Flagellum :D Flagellum- a long whiplike outgrowth from a cell that acts as an organ.
Euglena, which is a genus of unicellular flagellate protists.
Water typically moves into protozoa by osmosis, as they are usually in a hypotonic environment. This helps maintain their internal water balance and prevents dehydration.
Some bacteria have a tail called a flagellum, but many do not.

Sperm cells have longer projections called flagella that allow them to move with a whiplike motion, aiding in their mobility and ability to reach the egg for fertilization.

Cilia are whiplike cellular extensions that move substances along the cell surface. They are found in various cell types and are important for processes such as maintaining airway clearance and moving fluids in the body.

flagellates
Protozoa use cilia and flagella for locomotion. Cilia are short, hair-like structures that beat in a coordinated fashion to move the protozoa. Flagella are longer and move in a whip-like motion to propel the organism. Both ciliary and flagellar locomotion involve the movement of microtubules within the structures, generating force and direction for the organism to move.
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.
