The answer to the question above is letter C. Flagella. As said it is a tail-like appendage that protrudes from the body of the cells. The word flagella comes from the word "flagellum" which means whip. Typically, cilia also helps in the locomotives of the cell but it is the flagella that is appears as a tail.
