Answer:
The entire body surface is covered by a uniform covering of numerous,
hair like protoplasmic fine projections called cilia. These emerge out from the
centre of each polygonal depression (circumelliary space) of pellicles. THese
measure 10 to 12 in length and uptp to 0.27 in diameter. There are 10,000 to
14,000 cilia covering the whole body surface. These are arranged in regular
longitudinal rows. Their length is uniform throughout, except posterior end of the
body farming a candal tuff so the species name candtum. Functions of cilia are
locomotion and capturing the food particles.
