Question

wwhat are cilia and flagella? write one similarities and one dissimilarity between the two of them

Answer 1

Similarities include: 
 Cilia and flagella are both auxiliary parts of living cells. 
 They can both be used for movement. 
 
 Differences include: 
 1.Flagella are longer in size while cilia are shorter. 
 2.Cilia contributes in the prevention of dust accumulation in breathing tubes by simply creating a thin layer of mucous in the tube while the flagella mainly uses sperm cells to move and propel. 
 3.Cilia use ‘kinesin’ which has an ATPase activity that produces energy to perform the movement while the flagella are powered by the proton-motive force by the plasma membrane. 
 4.Cilia moves like the breast stroke in swimming while the flagella moves in an oar-like style. 
 5.Cilia are present in multi-cellular organisms and help in moving fluids past an immobile cell while the flagella are mainly found in gametes.

Hi

Here is ur answer

CILIA:

Cilia are hair-like structures used by some cells to move themselves.

FLAGELLA:

A flagellum is a whip-like structure that allows a cell to move.

Similarities:

• Both are auxillary parts of living cell.
• Both are used for movements.

Dissimilarities:

• Flagella is longer and cilia is shorter in size.
• Cilia is present in multi-cellular organisms and flagella is present in gametes.

Hope it helps U
