Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells

Some prokaryotes and eukaryotes have a cellular structure called a flagella.  What is the purpose of the flagella?

• to transport molecules across the cell membrane
• to propel the cell through liquid
• to collect food for the cell
• to tell the cell the direction of a food source
