Hi..
Both flagella and cilia have a 9 + 2 arrangement of microtubules. This arrangement refers to the 9 fused pairs of microtubules on the outside of a cylinder, and the 2 unfused microtubules in the center. Dynein "arms" attached to the microtubules serve as the molecular motors.
Hope this helps u!!

They both have similar internal structures and are made up of microtubules.The microtubule arrangement within cilia and flagella is 9 + 2 arrangement of microtubules.It contains nine fused pairs of microtubules on the outer side of a cylinder and the two unfused microtubules at the centre.
