Question

Does a protista have motility

Answer 1

Answer:

Yes, protists have motility.

Explanation:

Protists are unicellular eukaryotic organisms, which are included in a separate kingdom, as they are not included in the animalia, plantae or fungi kingdoms. They possess true nucleus, organelles, membrane and cell wall.

Many of the protistic organisms can be mobilized by modifications in their cytoplasm or by the existence of mobile appendages.

• Pseudopodia: also called false feet, they consist of modifications in the cellular form that allows them to move from one place to another.
• Cilia: these are numerous hairy structures that are found on the outside of the cell, and their coordinated movements provide the protists with mobility.
• Flagellae: unlike the cilia, these are less numerous structures, one or two, present on the outside of the cell whose whip-like movement confers movement.

Protists have motility due to modifications in their cytoplasm, as well as the existence of mobile appendages, such as cilia and flagella.
