Cilia and flagella are hair-like structures found in eukaryotic cells that play essential roles in various cellular processes, particularly in movement and sensory functions. While they share similarities, there are some key differences between the two structures.
1. Cilia:
- Structure: Cilia are short, hair-like projections that extend from the cell surface. They are typically numerous and cover the entire cell.
- Number per cell: Cells can have many cilia, often covering the entire cell surface.
- Movement: Cilia move in coordinated, rhythmic waves. The coordinated beating of cilia helps move substances along the cell surface or propel the cell itself.
- Location: Cilia are commonly found in large numbers on the surface of certain types of cells, such as those lining the respiratory tract, where their coordinated movement helps move mucus and trapped particles.
2. Flagella:
- Structure: Flagella are longer whip-like structures, usually one or a few per cell.
- Number per cell: Cells typically have fewer flagella, often just one or a few.
- Movement: Flagella move in a whip-like fashion, creating a propeller-like motion that propels the entire cell. Flagella are involved in cell motility.
- Location: Flagella are often found at one end of the cell, providing a means of locomotion. For example, the tail of a sperm cell is a flagellum.
Both cilia and flagella contain a microtubule-based structure called an axoneme, which consists of microtubule doublets arranged in a specific pattern. The movement of cilia and flagella is powered by the motor protein dynein, which causes the microtubules to slide against each other, resulting in the bending and movement of these structures.
In summary, while cilia and flagella share structural components and mechanisms of movement, their lengths, numbers per cell, and functions can differ. Cilia are often involved in moving substances along the cell surface, while flagella are typically associated with cell motility.

Bacterial flagella rotation is powered by the proton motive force - a flow of H+ ions or occasionally by the sodium-motive force - a flow of Na+ ions; archaeal flagella rotation is powered by ATP.

After ejaculation, mammalian sperm acquire energy from nutrient molecules found in the seminal plasma and in the female reproductive tract environment.
