Describe Locomotion in protozoa with reference to ciliary and flagellar locomotion and mechanism thereof?

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.
