Generally, the flagellum looks like a tail. They resemble a whip and acts like a motor for the bacteria. Flagella is plural for flagellum.
Cilia.
Flagella and cilia movement is powered by adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the primary energy source for cellular processes and provides the energy needed for the dynein motor proteins to generate the bending motion of flagella and cilia.
Projections that allow the cell to move or to move substances along the surface of the cell are called cilia and flagella. Flagella is a single long hair that allows the cell to swim. Cilia are several projections used for movement across the cell surface.
Cillia
Movement such as cilia or flagella can be observed under a compound microscope. These are hair-like structures that protrude from certain cells and help with cell motility. By observing these structures, scientists can study how cells move and interact with their environment.
Blepharisma have cilia, which are hair-like structures used for movement and feeding. Flagella are whip-like structures used for propulsion in some microorganisms, but Blepharisma primarily rely on their cilia for movement.
Cilia and flagella
Euglina has flagella. Paramesium has cilia. Amoeba has pseudopods
flagella or cilia.
Protozoans move with the help Pseudopodia, cilia and flagella. Pseudopodia - Amoeba Cilia - Paramaecium Flagella - Euglena
No itis not. Flagella are longer than cilia
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.
Cilia and flagella are both hair-like structures found in cells, but they differ in size and function. Cilia are shorter and more numerous, while flagella are longer and fewer in number. Cilia are primarily involved in moving substances along the cell surface, while flagella are used for cell movement.

Cilia and flagella in protists are structurally more complex and composed of microtubules arranged in a 9+2 pattern, while bacterial flagella are simpler and made of a single protein called flagellin. Protist cilia and flagella also have a different beating pattern and are involved in various functions like locomotion and feeding, whereas bacterial flagella primarily aid in movement.
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.
Cilia and flagella are hair-like structures found on the surface of some cells. They help with movement and can either propel the cell through its environment (flagella) or move substances along the cell surface (cilia).
