  1. Structurally, flagella and cilia are very similar, with an arrangement of nine pairs of microtubules in a ring, and two in the center.  Both are also used in feeding and locomotion.  However, flagella are generally found in groups of 1-3, and are fairly long, whereas  cilia are short, very numerous, and function together.  Pseudopodia are cytoplasmic extensions (caused by elongation of microtubules) that aid in feeding and locomotion.
