Which of the following is not a difference between cilia and flagella?(a) Cilia is short hairlike; flagella is long thread-like(b) Nexin present in cilia; Nexin absent in flagella(c) Axoneme present in cilia; Axoneme absent in flagella(d) Rapid rotational motion of Flagella; Sweeping slow movement of cilia

Answer» Right option is (c) Axoneme present in cilia; Axoneme absent in flagella

The best I can explain: Inside both cilia and flagella, is a microtubule-based cytoskeleton called axoneme. Axoneme is the central strand of either a cilium or flagellum which is composed of an array of microtubules. Microtubules are arranged in nine pairs around two central microtubule (9+2 combination).
