The paramecium moves by means of?

Cilia are generally used to move the environment around you. For example, Our tracheal cells have cilia to move dust up our throat so we can remove it by coughing. So a paramecium would use them to move nutrients towards its “mouth.”

Flagella are used in many bacteria and protists. Flagella are generally larger than cilia and are used for fast movement through an environment. Paramecium usually have one or more larger flagella at the “rear” to move around its environment.
