Cilia and flagella are cell organelles that are structurally similar but are differentiated based on their function and/or length.

Answer 2

Answer:

Cilia:-

The cilium  is an organelle found on eukaryotic cells in the shape of a slender protuberance that projects from the much larger cell body.

There are two types of cilia: motile and non-motile cilia. The non-motile cilia are called primary cilia which typically serve as sensory organelles. There is a third type of cilium that is only transiently present in the early embryo. These are known as nodal cilia and are crucial in the establishment of the left to right body asymmetry.

Flagella:-

A flagellum  is a lash-like appendage that protrudes from the cell body of certain bacteria and eukaryotic cells termed as flagellates. A flagellate can have one or several flagella. The primary function of a flagellum is that of locomotion, but it also often functions as a sensory organelle, being sensitive to chemicals and temperatures outside the cell. The similar structure in the archaea functions in the same way but is structurally different and has been termed the archaellum.
