Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cilia and flagella are elongated appendages that are used for propelling the cell or for moving material over the cell surface. Axonemes and myonemes are not structures found in cells. Basal bodies and centrioles are involved in cell division and organization of microtubules, but they are not involved in cell propulsion. Microtubules and microfilaments are part of the cytoskeleton but they are not elongated appendages used for cell propulsion. Axopodia and myopodia are not structures found in cells.
